About us.

our story.

Every step tells a story. At Stepp we understand the importance of healthy feet - not just for mobility, but for quality of life. That is why we are committed to one goal every day: enabling people to walk confidently.

Our multidisciplinary team brings together science, technology and craftsmanship. Whether solving complex challenges in orthopaedic shoe technology or focusing on prevention, we combine data and human expertise to deliver care that makes a real difference. We do this together. Our podiatrists, orthopaedic shoe technicians, chiropodists and IT specialists work together to create solutions that seamlessly meet our patients' needs - from prevention to pain relief and recovery.

At Stepp is all about synergy - between disciplines, between innovation and experience, but most importantly: between us and our patients, clients, referrers and partners. Trust is built not only by what we do, but also by how we do it. With transparency, empathy and an unlimited passion for quality. We listen, learn and are constantly working to deliver the very best care.

With our eye on the future, we aim not only to set the standard in total foot care, but also to be a reliable partner for anyone seeking support. Together, we enable people to walk with confidence.

Stepp Together For Total Footcare

Wat is Stepp?

Stepp Footcare (formerly Scharenborg Group) was founded on a strong vision of integrated foot care. What started as a regional player in podiatry and orthopaedics has grown into a leading organisation with a team of 1,000 professionals spread over more than 600 treatment locations. Thousands of patients are treated every day, ranging from light foot care to complex multidisciplinary treatments. Our group includes companies active in orthopaedic shoe technology, podiatry, medical pedicure and support expertise, and we have our own production centres in the Netherlands and Portugal, as well as shops for sports and comfort shoes.

What sets us apart is the way care, technology and science converge. By deploying advanced technologies, such as 3D scanning and digital assistants, and using data-driven insights, the effectiveness and efficiency of treatments is continuously improved.
