Calgary Orthopedic Podiatrists Who Care

The doctors and staff welcome you to Associate Foot Specialists Clinic in Calgary, Alberta. Our practice is dedicated to providing the best possible foot and ankle care to adults and children in a pleasant and caring environment. After completing undergraduate studies, our doctors achieved a four year degree in podiatry, followed by a two year surgical residency. Since the mid-1990s, Dr. Darryl Gurevitch and Dr. Jason Gurevitch have provided complete orthopedic podiatric care to patients in Calgary and the surrounding areas.

We believe that early diagnosis, intervention and prevention are essential to the care of your feet and will help you maintain an active and healthy lifestyle. Contrary to popular opinion, foot pain should not be a regular occurrence.
