What is Podiatry?

Podiatry, also known as chiropody, is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle, knee, leg and hip, collectively known as the lower extremity.

A podiatrist is a medical specialist who aims to improve the mobility, independence and quality of life for their patients. Podiatrists provide medical diagnosis and treatment of foot, ankle and lower limb problems in adults and children, such as bunions, heel pain, infections, neuromas, ingrown toenails, warts, corns and calluses. A podiatrist also provides rehab care of ligament sprains, muscle strains and tendon injuries.
