The Heel Pain Specialty
Clinic of Canada is a
division of the
Achilles Foot Health Centre, a
3,800 square-foot,
full-service podiatric
medical clinic located in
Surrey, British Columbia,
Canada.
The Heel Pain Specialty Clinic was developed to meet the needs of
patients who have been suffering with chronic, unrelenting heel pain
that has not been responsive to traditional therapies, and who
otherwise had few, if any, remaining treatment options.
While we offer all the standard, conservative heel pain
treatments--which work in most cases of heel pain--we saw that the
heel pain of a small but significant percentage of patients did not
resolve with standard treatment. And as heel pain had evolved
to become such a major component of our practice, we felt we had to
search for alternative measures to help our patients.
For this reason, we have
committed ourselves to
becoming the leader in
providing
new, cutting-edge,
state-of-the-art technology
to help resolve chronic,
non-responsive heel pain.
Our facility is owned and operated by Dr. S. A.
Schumacher, a podiatric physician and surgeon
with 19 years experience in the field.
Some of his important credentials are as
