Our story
Lloyd opened the doors of Roncesvalles Family Foot Care in 2006, after completing his studies at the Michener Institute and finishing at the top of his class. He started off with his wife at the front answering the phones, and two patients scheduled.
Twenty years later, Roncesvalles Family Foot Care is a thriving business built on great references and word of mouth.
We are a small family business and pride ourselves on care that is both gentle and professional. We have invested in the latest technologies to efficiently treat all ailments of the foot and ankle, from common nuisances like warts and ingrown toenails, to more complex issues like plantar fasciitis and nail fungus. You can trust that we will provide the most informed treatment plan for your foot issues.
“We put the family into foot care — you’ve got our word on that.”
What we do
From routine maintenance to advanced treatments, every plan is built around the most informed approach for your feet — delivered gently and professionally.
Medical devices worn inside your shoes to accommodate painful areas and control abnormal alignment — drastically decreasing foot conditions as well as knee, hip and back pain. Plaster casting is the industry standard: moulded over the foot in a neutral, non-weight-bearing position and adjusted by a skilled chiropodist. We stand by our product.
The latest and most advanced technology in the industry to attack stubborn nail fungus — a safe and effective solution. We evaluate the severity of each case to build a plan; most often at least four sessions are required for adequate resolution.
A safe but assertive method of physical therapy: the chronically injured area is subjected to high-energy acoustic waves to stimulate blood flow and break up calcification and scar tissue. Commonly used for plantar fasciitis, heel spurs and Morton’s neuroma.
Moderate- and high-risk diabetic feet are optimally treated with regular visits to prevent and monitor your foot health. Routine professional care — nail cutting and callus removal — helps you avoid complications associated with diabetes over time.
Routine professional foot maintenance for the common, everyday nuisances that build up over time — keeping your feet comfortable and healthy.
Viral (HPV) infections on the skin of the feet, often confused with calluses and corns and difficult to treat. Left untreated they enlarge, deepen and spread, and many over-the-counter remedies fail. We offer a number of successful options to safely and effectively remove them.
A deformity of the big-toe joint that forms when the toe moves out of place and crowds the lesser toes — leading to irritation, inflammation and further complications. We work to stop the progression and reduce discomfort with footwear advice and custom orthotics; severe cases may be referred for surgical correction.
When the nail curves downward and penetrates the skin it can cause a bacterial infection and limit your activity. Options range from oral antibiotic therapy to in-office procedural management and surgical correction under local anaesthetic — relieving pain in as little as one visit.
We also sell a variety of specialized products for your medical foot care needs.
