PiedRéseau Drummondville Podiatrists and orthotics

A podiatrist who knows how to adapt

Podiatrist Dr. Descôteaux is equipped to offer a complete spectrum of foot treatment with her doctorate in podiatric medicine from the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières.

During her time at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine, she had developed her skills in orthopedics, podiatry and foot surgery even further.

Dr. Descôteaux, podiatrist, is a dedicated podiatrist and is eager for continuous education to stay up to date on best practices.

She also serves as inspector for the Order of Podiatrists’ Professional Inspection Committee which motivates her to pursue  more specialized training to fulfill this leading role.

When working with her patients, she puts this knowledge into practice.

Dr. Marc-André Héroux, podiatrist, has worked in the Drummondville podiatry clinic for many years and holds a Doctorate in podiatric medicine from the UQTR. He  was able to consolidate the range of his expertise by sharing his time between his present clinic and Mauricie’s podiatry clinic.

Dr. Héroux is a podiatrist who specializes in biomechanical and postural problems, for which he is frequently sought out by athletes.

From pupil to teacher 

Despite a traditional university education that would culminate in an internship at the prestigious New York College of Podiatric Medicine, Dr. Marc-André Héroux is constantly hungry for new information.

As a result, he got manual foot therapy training in addition to his internship, teaching him the active release technique and foot mobilization technique.

Having this sort of skill allows him to offer a variety of benefits, such as:

• Promoting faster healing of the affected limb;
• Improving your range of motion;
• Reducing muscle tension;
• Increasing the elasticity and suppleness of the muscle fibers and scars of the foot.

Podiatrist Dr. Héroux is also qualified to treat athletes in addition to his regular patients.

He may be relied upon to offer foot orthoses customized for certain activities, such as figure skating and skiing, thanks to his expertise as an enthusiastic athlete himself.

His biomechanics and manual therapy-based practice has prompted him to design a specific manual therapy course for his fellow podiatrists in Quebec.

Holding everyone’s well-being dear

Marc-André Héroux, DPM, like his colleague, podiatrist Caroline Descôteaux, promotes principles of respect and adaptability to each patient’s circumstance. In addition to his work as a trainer, he is committed to promoting healthy living choices in his community.

All in all, podiatrist Marc-André Héroux’s experience and thoroughness make him an ideal ally in the treatment and follow-up of your foot problems.
