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.
