What does a Podiatrist do?

Podiatry is a specialist area of healthcare that involves foot and lower limb conditions. A podiatrist is a healthcare professional who specialises in conditions affecting the feet and ankles.

Appointments

When you book an appointment, a link to a medical questionnaire will be sent in your email confirmation. Please fill this out as soon as you can so it can be processed before your appointment. You only need to do this once. 

 

A week before your appointment, we will send you a reminder email, followed by both a text and an email reminder 24 hours before the scheduled time.

 

Cancellation Policy

We understand that circumstances change and you may need to cancel or reschedule your appointment with us. We simply ask you to give a minimum of 24 hours and we will be happy to rearrange.

Any cancellations with less than 24 hours notice or any missed appointments will be required to pay the full treatment cost (unless we can fill the slot).

 

Appointments last 30 mins where you will be assessed, diagnosed and treated for any foot problems. We have Saturday appointments available.

Treatments

New patient treatment - £49.00 Routine treatment - £44.00

We offer a professional and caring foot care service and are able to treat problems such as:

​Callous (hard skin),
Corns,
Nail disorders eg ingrown nails,
Skin disorders,
Athlete’s foot,
Arthritic foot care,
General foot pain,
Footwear advice

Musculoskeletal (MSK) Consultation (£49.00)

MSK assessment can diagnose underlying muscular and joint problems, which may be responsible for a range of symptoms ranging from hard skin and corns to flat feet, knee problems and even back pain. Our Podiatrists can tell if your particular style of walking may be causing a problem and advise you of the treatments available.

Orthotics

These are corrective appliances, which can be prescribed to treat biomechanical problems. They slip into the shoe, and help distribute your body weight more evenly while correcting any abnormalities in your gait. For more information from the College of Podiatry  <click here for more info>

Annual Foot Checks for Diabetes

Foot problems are common causes of chronic disabilities in patients with diabetes. Early identification and intervention of those at risk will prevent complications and reduce the number of amputations.

Our Podiatrists are specially trained to perform diabetic foot screening. A copy will be given to you and sent to your GP.

Nail Surgery (from £340)

If a nail problem (e.g. ingrowing nail) is severe or does not resolve with conservative treatment, your Podiatrist will remove part or the whole nail under local anaesthetic.

This simple procedure produces a good cosmetic effect, and the problem is not likely to recur. For more information from the College of Podiatry. <click here for more info>

Verrucae

Verrucae are plantar warts that commonly occur on the soles of the feet or around the toe area.  In many cases, evidence suggests that verrucae will disappear of their own accord.

Treatments provided by a podiatrist involve an assessment of your general well-being and foot health before deciding on a treatment plan.  Please visit our Advice Sheet page for further information on treatments available.
