A surgical shoe and a boot are not the same, though they serve similar purposes in aiding recovery. A surgical shoe is generally a lightweight, open-toed shoe designed to protect the foot and provide support after surgery or injury. In contrast, a medical boot, often known as a walking boot or orthopedic boot, offers more extensive protection and support, usually covering more of the foot and sometimes extending up the leg to stabilize the ankle.
