Dr. Hobeychi holds a Doctorate of Podiatric Medicine from the prestigious New York College of Podiatric Medicine. He completed his residency at St. Barnabas Hospital in New York City where he learned foot surgery from internationally renowned podiatric and orthopaedic surgeons.
Once he returned to Quebec, he began an academic career and helped launch the Doctorate of Podiatric Medicine program at Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières (UQTR), the first French-speaking program of its kind in the world. He currently still serves as a professor and resident supervisor.

Anne-Louise Smith has a Doctorate of Podiatric Medicine from UQTR. She completed an internship at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine that included rotations in surgery, orthopaedics, paediatrics, and radiology. She also completed internships at the Centre hospitalier régional de Lanaudière and the Centre hospitalier de Trois-Rivières in the nephrology and wound care departments.
Anne-Louise is currently enrolled in the foot surgery program at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine and is therefore not available for patient appointments at the clinic. We look forward to her return after her studies in 2022.
