Name
6A - Health – Keeping Canada on its feet: the role of the Podiatrist
Description

Foot care in Canada requires broad clinical knowledge and specialized training, a proper biomechanical examination, an informed clinical diagnosis, and a quality management approach. Done right, we can reduce repeat cliams for ineffective orthotics from unqualified providers. Podiatrists have impact. Efforts to preserve limbs and reduce amputations go beyond orthotics and shoes. Healthy patients are contributing employees and citizens. The economic burden of improper footcare is often overlooked.
