What is a Chiropodist? A podiatrist/chiropodist is a health professional who is responsible for the diagnosis and management of a wide range of diseases and disorders of the lower limb, in particular of the feet. This can range from advice about basic foot hygiene, the treatment of ailments such as corns and callouses to the diagnosis and management of structural and functional disorders of the lower limb.

We can come to your home, residential home or place of work.

What happens during treatment? On your first visit a detailed medical history will be taken, and a discussion of your specific lower limb problem will take place in order to establish diagnosis and treatment plan. Your foot problem will then be treated along with the removal of any callous or trimming of nails if required. At the end of the treatment a written treatment plan and any advice will be given if required. Most chiropody treatments are painless and will last around 30 - 45 minutes. The first appointment may be slightly longer.

What services do we offer? In general a routine appointment will include the removal of corns and callous plus the trimming of nails. However, it may also include the diagnosis and treatment of fungal and bacterial infections such as athlete’s foot or verrucae. Further diagnosis and management of ingrown toenails by either regular treatment or surgery may also be indicated. Advice and treatment can also be provided for a variety of other conditions including metatarsalgia, acute and chronic flat foot, nail conditions, ill fitting footwear. Simple orthotic devices can be made. In most cases clients will be given advice about suitable short and long term treatments for their condition.
