At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive health care education with an attention to on problems concerning the ankles and feet.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks.
