Qureshy Foot & Orthotic Clinic
Chiropodist / Foot Care Services
What is the difference between a Chiropodist and a Podiatrist?
Both Chiropodist & Podiatrist can prescribe drugs, assess and treat foot and ankle problems, perform soft tissue surgeries, prescribe custom orthotics and orthopaedic shoes. Podiatrists can perform bone surgery as well. The regulating board for both the professions is College of Chiropodists of Ontario and both Chiropodists and Podiatrists must pass comprehensive board exams and provincial licensing exams to be licensed to practice.
One of the factors that weighs in on the title is determined by which country the Chiropody or Podiatry degree was obtained. A Podiatrist practicing in Ontario will have graduated outside Ontario (usually in the US) and will have moved to Ontario before 1993. All Podiatrists who moved to Ontario after 1993 are registered as Chiropodists in the province of Ontario. Therefore, in an effort to promote the profession of Chiropody in Ontario, there have been no new Podiatrists registered in Ontario since 1993.
Rest assured that you’ll receive the right care for your situation whether you see a Chiropodist or a Podiatrist
