A Chiropodist is trained to assess, treat, and provide ongoing care of the foot. As a key member of our health care team, the chiropodist has many skills to help you get rid of foot pain, become mobile, and maintain healthy feet.
Chiropodists treat:
- Flat feet, high arch feet, and foot pain;
- Common foot problems such as corns, warts, ingrown toenails, or calluses;
- Foot deformities and misalignments in both adults and children; and
- Foot ulcers and wounds (mostly caused by diabetes).
