What is a Podiatrist?

The podiatrist is a health professional governed by the Quebec Professional Code, the Podiatry Act and the Code of Ethics of Podiatrists. He evaluates and treats conditions and diseases of the foot that are not diseases of the system by medical, chemical, pharmaceutical, surgical, mechanical means or manipulation.

The podiatrist has the expertise and skills necessary to detect any complications relating to the foot. In addition to offering advice on foot health and hygiene, the podiatrist can prescribe and administer certain medications, perform minor surgeries and prescribe, manufacture or modify podiatric orthotics.

The podiatrist’s training, a doctorate in podiatric medicine, is comparable to that of a dentist. The training leading to the title of doctor of podiatric medicine represents some 1,770 hours of theoretical training and more than 2,300 hours of practical training over a period of four years.
