Ultrasound guided injection - Ottawa Foot Clinic
The Ottawa Foot Clinic offers ultrasound-guided injection, a specialized service in sports podiatry designed to deliver targeted treatment directly to affected areas of the foot. This technique utilizes ultrasound technology to guide the injection, allowing for precise placement of therapeutic solutions, including anti-inflammatory agents and hyaluronic acid. This method is particularly effective for conditions such as osteoarthritis of the big toe, plantar fasciitis, Morton’s neuroma, and other plantar ailments. The ultrasound-guided injection not only alleviates pain but also minimizes complications associated with traditional injection methods, making it a safe and efficient option for patients seeking relief.
At the Ottawa Foot Clinic, the ultrasound-guided injection is performed by a dedicated team of podiatrists who are well-versed in the latest techniques and technologies in foot care. Antoun Hajj, the owner and lead podiatrist, holds a Doctorate in Podiatric Medicine and has extensive experience in treating a variety of foot conditions. He is complemented by Élie Bélanger and Rachel Ollerton, both qualified podiatrists with specialized training in ultrasound techniques. Together, they ensure that each patient receives thorough evaluations and follow-up care tailored to their specific needs, all within a professional and state-of-the-art clinic environment.
