A humane clinic with a highly devoted staff
When it opened in 2010, the Clinique podiatrique de Gatineau in the Aylmer sector was the first of two clinics opened in the region by podiatrist Stephen Davis. In fact, it was so popular that a second clinic was opened in Hull in 2011 to meet the ever-increasing demand. This popularity may be attributed in particular to the great dedication of the staff to their patients.

Examples include ultrasound equipment, to accurately scan your muscles, ligaments or tendons and perform ultrasound-guided procedures, laser to treat plantar warts, shockwave, to treat plantar fasciitis and tendonitis, as well as a laboratory for custom-made orthopaedic devices.
