How do I know if I need the help of a podiatrist?
Podiatrists are experts in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of feet and lower limb medical conditions. If you ever have foot or leg pain, we recommend a consultation with a podiatrist. Although it is common, pain is never normal. In many cases, it can be caused by wearing ill-fitting shoes or biomechanic issues but regardless of the cause, we can help you determine the source and find the best solutions.
