Attention Patients and Health Care Practitioners

The College of Chiropodists wishes to confirm that there is no change to the provision of health care in Ontario as a result of the Premier’s announcement on January 12, 2021. This situation highlights the importance of the continuance of the ongoing care that we provide to our patients to do our part as members of the healthcare system, so as to prevent overwhelming the already stressed hospital and ER settings as a consequence of COVID-19.


The Michener Chiropody Student Teaching Clinic is open and seeing patients. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Clinic is operating at reduced capacity with strict health protocols in place.

PLEASE NOTE: We are actively screening patients at booking, during reminder calls and upon main desk check-in. We require a face covering to be worn while on-site anywhere in the building. Please DO NOT walk in to make appointments, contact us via phone (416-596-3108) and we will be happy to assist you.

Located on the third floor of The Michener Institute, the Michener Chiropody Clinic supports the Michener Chiropody program and offers foot care to the public.

The Michener Chiropody Clinic offers hands-on training to Chiropody students and care to regional clients in a clinical setting under the supervision of faculty who are also certified chiropodists.

Chiropodists are primary healthcare providers who treat people of all ages and activity levels. A referral or previous diagnosis is not required to visit a Chiropodist. We offer general and preventative foot care for a wide range of foot conditions. We treat at all the levels of the foot, from surface skin infections to bone and joint pain. Your first visit will include a full history and foot exam which will allow us to develop a comprehensive management plan to meet your foot care needs.
