This is the college that regulates Chiropodists and Podiatrists in Ontario. Annually, Think Feet’s Chiropodists must register with this organization, through a yearly fee, in order to be licensed to practice in Ontario. As healthcare professionals, Chiropodists and Podiatrists are required, by legislation, to maintain specific standards of care to protect patients.
