Biopsy of a foot lesion - PiedRéseau Saint-Bruno
The PiedRéseau Saint-Bruno clinic offers a specialized service for the biopsy of foot lesions, a minor surgical procedure commonly performed in podiatry. This intervention involves the removal of a small sample of soft tissue from a suspicious lesion under local anesthesia, which is then sent to a laboratory for detailed analysis. By conducting this biopsy, our podiatrists can accurately diagnose the type of dermatological pathology affecting the patient, allowing for tailored treatment plans based on the results.
At PiedRéseau Saint-Bruno, we understand the importance of addressing foot lesions effectively. Our clinic is equipped to handle various dermatological issues, including chronic skin problems, growing lesions, and difficult-to-identify new lesions. The biopsy service is particularly beneficial for patients whose lesions have not responded to previous treatments. By providing a clear diagnosis and understanding of the lesion’s characteristics, we ensure that patients receive appropriate care and faster healing.
The team at PiedRéseau Saint-Bruno is led by Dr. Marie-Claude Charest, a qualified podiatrist with a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree. She is supported by Dr. Laurence Gagnon, also a podiatrist, and a dedicated staff including Francine Longpré and Geneviève Henry, who assist in providing a welcoming environment. Together, they focus on delivering comprehensive podiatric care, ensuring that each patient’s needs are met with professionalism and attention.
