Phone or Videoconference Consultation
The Clinique et centre de chirurgie podiatrique is constantly striving to innovate to reach more patients and improve their daily lives. Virtual consultations expand access to a podiatrist's expertise and pain-relieving treatments.
If you have concerns about your feet or believe you need specialized care after a medical consultation, don't hesitate to request a virtual appointment with one of our podiatrists to quickly assess your situation. Remote consultation is the most convenient and effective way to get a professional opinion.
Virtual Consultation Identifies Several Foot Diseases
Although some foot conditions require a physical consultation, many can be identified through remote evaluation.
This service is offered to patients who already have a diagnosis provided by a general practitioner or podiatrist, and who wish to better understand the most appropriate and effective treatments for quick and painless recovery. After reviewing the medical records and assessing the physical condition of the patient, an initial evaluation can be conducted, and a treatment plan also suggested for those who have not yet been diagnosed.
For cases that require minimally invasive surgery, tests, such as an X-ray, will be conducted on-site at the clinic on the day of the procedure if they haven't been done beforehand.
