Why visit a chiropodist?

It is very important that we look after our feet, as they are expected to carry us great distances throughout our lives, with very little in the way of pampering, care or attention. Most adults cram their feet into ill-fitting fashion shoes most of their working lives, and sometimes barely manage to walk. What’s more we tend to ignore ‘minor’ foot problems until they become ‘major’ ones!

A Chiropodist can help improve mobility and maintain fit, active and pain free feet. The Chiropodist will treat general and diabetic foot problems including callous, corns, in-growing toe nails,
verrucae and warts. They can also provide orthotics and corrective insoles and give advice on footwear and footcare.

Whatever your problem your first step should be to visit a Registered Chiropodist.

Here at Raynesway Dental Practice we have a fully qualified Chiropodist on hand – Alison Hill. Alison qualified as a Chiropodist in 2000 at the SMAE institute in Berkshire and is fully registered with the Health Professions Council in London. Before qualifying, Alison had 14 years in nursing at the Derbyshire Royal Infirmary, eight of which were in Orthopaedics.

Alison’s room is well equipped, clean and comfortable, and although she is based upstairs at the practice it is possible to see patients in one of the downstairs rooms if required – just call us in advance to let us know.

Open Saturday mornings and late night Thursday evenings.
