PODIATRISTS IN THE NEWS

MI Podiatrist Discusses the Benefits of a Medical Pedicure

 

A medical pedicure is much different than a cosmetic pedicure by a cosmetologist. This is not foot care to make your feet look beautiful, this is foot care that is essential for simply being able to walk and function during your daily life. A medical pedicure should be performed at a podiatrist 's office. It is much more hygienic, and it is more focused on medical care and not cosmesis.

 

Dr. Tomasz Biernacki

 

Tomasz Biernacki, DPM, who performs medical pedicures, states, "A medical pedicure is not something that should take a long time, ideally if you can come in for 5 minutes and have your foot pain relieved and make sure you don't have a fungal or bacterial infection, then that is the best thing we can do for you."
