Your feet are important and keeping them in good shape keeps you comfortable, happier and means you can do more, which in turn means a better quality of life. Regular care by a qualified podiatrist/chiropodist helps to keep you on your feet – without them hurting. It can also act as an early warning system, as some medical conditions can be picked up because of the effect they have on your feet. Many otherwise healthy people occasionally suffer from pain or discomfort, which can often be improved with the right treatment by a podiatrist/chiropodist.

A podiatrist provides diagnosis and treatment of lower limb conditions including:

• Regular Foot Care - corns, hard skin & cracked heels

• Nail Care - routine & nail problems (e.g. thickened, fungal or ingrown toenails)

• Verrucas including needling

• Consultations - discussion, advice & diagnosis of your area of concern

• Nail Surgery - ingrown toenails

• Children - Foot & lower limb problems
