Podiatry

Corns, calluses, ingrown toenails, foot deformities or pain when walking: podiatry deals with skin and nail conditions of the foot, in both children and adults, and supports recovery following surgery or trauma.

Mrs Mirela Marinescu

As a qualified podiatrist, I treat various foot conditions and pathologies in both children and adults. Specifically, I treat skin and nail disorders, foot deformities, as well as pain and disorders related to walking and posture. I pay particular attention to the assessment of the foot, posture and walking in order to provide care tailored to the needs of each patient. I also provide post-surgical and post-trauma foot care, with the aim of promoting optimal recovery and improving daily comfort and quality of life.

My professional background has enabled me to work in various healthcare environments, notably at the Iris Sud Hospital – Molière-Longchamps site, the Polyclinique Baron Lambert and the La Vaillance Health Centre in Anderlecht, alongside home visits. These various experiences have allowed me to develop a personalised approach while gaining solid experience in the management of patients with general health problems or more complex medical situations.

I will be delighted to welcome you to the practice and to look after my new patients with a professional, caring approach that is attentive to their needs.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know to prepare for your visit to the centre and approach your treatment with complete peace of mind.

No, a medical prescription is not required to see a doctor, regardless of the speciality. Only physiotherapy sessions require a prescription in order to be reimbursed by your health insurance.

Reimbursement depends on the fee-agreement status of the practitioner consulted, as some have opted out of the national health insurance scheme. The fee-agreement status of each practitioner is indicated when booking the appointment.

This is the strength of our multidisciplinary approach. Our surgeons, physicians, physiotherapists and osteopaths all share the same secure medical record. This allows us to design your treatment plan together and monitor your progress in real time.

The simplest way is to use our online direct booking modules (available via Rosa on our Contact page). There, you can choose your practitioner and time slot in just a few clicks. For any urgent matters, our reception desk remains reachable by email at contact@orthochatelain.com.
