Are your team qualified and experienced?
Yes. All our podiatrists are fully qualified professionals and registered with the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC). They are also Members of the Royal College of Podiatry and their combined experience would easily be the equivalent found in an NHS Podiatry Department, and can treat complex problems affecting the foot and ankle. Although they are also extremely happy to treat and discuss fairly simple problems affecting the feet, nails and skin, it’s nice to know that you are in the safe hands of a team that takes the medical side of their profession seriously.
What foot problems do you treat?
All sorts – from basic tidying of skin and nail problems with a medical pedicure, through to foot pain and injuries related to walking and running. We treat wounds and ulcers, coordinating with medical and nursing colleagues, we deal with people with the most fragile of feet, such as diabetes and rheumatoid disease, and we deal with trauma and recovery from injury or surgery. Our team work closely with GPs to identify the reason foot issues occur, so we can cure problems wherever possible. We can request further investigations where more information is needed, privately or via the GP/NHS, and we can make recommendations for further treatment with medical professionals such as dermatologists, orthopaedics and neurology.
Do I need a referral to see your team?
No. While we receive many recommendations from local GPs, we are a private practice, so you don’t need any referral from anyone else to make an appointment. Just call us and tell us what kind of problems you have and we tell you if we can help, and give you an idea of what we can do. Just use the Online Consultation button on every page – it’s free!
