Department of Podiatry @ Ospedale Galeazzi - Sant'Ambrogio

The Department of Podiatry of Ospedale Galeazzi-Sant'Ambrogio, directed by Professor Antonio Serafin, is supplied with all the equipment and instrumentation necessary for the biomechanical study, diagnostic investigation and treatment of pathological manifestations of the foot of podiatric interest.

It also conducts in-house research on pathophysiological gait with the latest gait-analysis equipment. During the podiatric outpatient activity, which has decades of experience, all podiatric orthotics, both digital and plantar, suitable for the preventive and/or curative treatment of podiatric paramorphisms are made.

A well-equipped podiatry laboratory allows for the 'tailor-made' fabrication of all types of orthotics, functional and/or biomechanical, designed to compensate or correct dysmorphisms or paramorphisms of the musculoskeletal system in both children and adults.

The podiatry service is also equipped with state-of-the-art baropodometric platforms for the static and dynamic study of walking and posture of the human body and state-of-the-art instrumentation for the functional evaluation of the joints of the ankle/foot complex.

It also has softlaser machinery for the treatment of breech dermatological disorders.
