Out Patient Chiropody Clinic at Runnymede Hospital
Now Open!

The West Toronto Foot & Ankle Clinic has been provided with its own clinical setting within the newly opened Runnymede Healthcare Centre. Our chiropodists have been treating the residence of the hospital with professional foot care services for the past few years. Now that the new hospital has been built a chiropody treatment room has been allocated specifically to chiropody. The clinic is now open and is ready to service the local community on an out-patient basis now as well. Call 416-253-6400 for more details

The West Toronto Foot & Ankle Clinic Inc. is conducting a research study called “An investigation of long term effects of pregnancy on forefoot dimensions and orthotic intervention.”
Women commonly report that their feet become larger during pregnancy and remain this way permanently. These changes could be due to changes in ligaments caused by the extra weight that is carried during pregnancy and by hormonally induced alterations of the connective tissue in the ligaments. A literature search revealed only two previous studies were performed on the feet of pregnant women measuring foot parameters despite the long time awareness of significant symptomatology or anecdotal claims of permanent physiologic change.
If you or someone you know are pregnant with their first child and are in the first month, and would like to be a part of this study, please contact the clinic as soon as possible.
You are a mother or know someone who is, then please consider doing our short survey.
