What can I expect on your arrival?
After the initial greeting, it would be preferable for me to work in a room that has good lighting or where there will be plenty of natural light.
I would encourage you to sit in a chair that is most comfortable for yourself. I carry with us a seat to sit on and a foot rest along with equipment I will need to provide a Podiatry treatment.
Can I claim the cost of my treatment back on a health plan?
Yes you can!
I can provide you with a receipt by email.
I usually wear nail polish, should I remove it before I see you?
Yes please!
I like to assess the condition of your toe nails.
How long will the treatment last?
In general for the routine podiatry treatment and diabetic assessment I will be with you for 30 minutes.
​
If it is your first routine podiatry treatment, normally 45 minutes.
​
What if I can no longer make my appointment?
If you are no longer able to attend your appointment please give me as much notice as possible and I will happily rearrange it for you.
What is the difference between a Chiropodist and a Podiatrist?
Chiropody is the traditional name for the footcare profession. Chiropodists are now referred to as Podiatrists as this is the term for foot care specialists. Both titles are protected by the Health & Care Professions Council.
How long will it be before I need my feet treated again?
The length of time between treatments varies between individuals and the type of foot problems you have. The average time between general footcare treatment is 6 - 8 weeks
I’m not happy with the treatment I received, what do I do?
Patient care is at the heart of the service I provide. If however on the rare occasion you have a concern, I have a complaints procedure available to view here
