What's the difference between a chiropodist, a podiatrist and a foot health practitioner?
Foot Health practitioners are not Podiatrists. Only Podiatrists are regulated by the HCPC (the same body that regulates physiotherapists and nurses) Chiropodist is simply the old name for Podiatrists. You can check if someone is a registered Podiatrist on the HCPC website and The Royal College of Podiatry websites.

Podiatry is the specialised treatment of the feet and ankles. As a practice we specialise in biomechanics, 3D printed bespoke CAD CAM design orthotics, treatment of fungal nails, verrucas and ingrowing toenails.
If a surgical solution is required, we are able to refer you to a Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon.

Do you do home visits?
We are able to visit you in the comfort of your own home. These appoinments must be booked over the phone. Please ring for a quote on 0161 8812128. Home Visits are more expensive because we have to pay our clinician for the travelling podiatrist and use special equipment that is fully sterile. Our clinicians also have an Advanced DBS certificate will cover their own parking fees and use specialist portable equipment they can carry to the patients home.
Are the treatments painful?
Podiatry should always be as pain free as possible, this is a core belief of ours. We can use local anaesthetic where required and will always clearly explain and gain consent before carrying out treatment.

Not all treatments are covered by healthcare providers, but we are registered with many so it is always worth checking prior to your appointment. You will need to gain an authorisation number to assist us with billing, and make sure that you are covered.
