In Hull, Aylmer, Gatineau or the surrounding areas, do you have a recent injury that represents a minor emergency? Don’t have a family doctor or can’t reach your family medicine group (FMG)?

Or better yet, you have a healthcare professional to consult but know that the podiatrist is in the best position to help you? For foot or ankle injuries and pain, there is no need to spend hours in the hospital, especially in the Outaouais region where the public health care network is particularly overloaded.
