Services
Laser Toenail Treatment
Laser therapy targets toenail fungus using Health Canada and FDA-approved Cutera GenesisPlus technology. The non-invasive procedure heats fungal tissue beneath the nail, promoting clear regrowth with minimal discomfort. Clinical trials show 85% effectiveness, requiring no recovery time. Patients resume daily activities immediately after sessions spaced 4 weeks apart.
Swift Wart Therapy
Swift Microwave Therapy treats warts by activating the immune system against HPV virus. Three sessions eliminate infections without blistering or downtime. Microwaves deliver targeted heat to infected tissue, resolving warts permanently while allowing immediate return to activities. Follow-up ensures lasting results.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Advanced MIS/LICA bunionectomy and Lapidus procedures correct foot deformities with smaller incisions and faster recovery. Over 100 successful cases demonstrate expertise in joint fusions, hammertoe correction, and neuroma release, preserving mobility while addressing structural issues.
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized management of diabetes-related foot complications prevents amputation through early intervention. Services include ulcer treatment, nerve damage assessment, and preventive care tailored to high-risk patients, combining surgical and conservative approaches for optimal outcomes.
