Services
Routine Footcare
Our comprehensive footcare service addresses common issues like corns, calluses, and ingrown toenails while maintaining nail health. Expert podiatrists provide diabetic foot assessments and preventive care to maintain mobility and comfort. Treatments combine manual techniques with patient education for long-term foot health.
Swift Verruca Treatment
This innovative verruca treatment uses targeted microwave energy to stimulate immune response without damaging surrounding skin. Sessions take just 5 seconds with no anaesthetic required, allowing immediate return to daily activities. Most patients require 3-4 sessions spaced 3-5 weeks apart for optimal results.
Laser Fungal Nail Therapy
Advanced laser technology targets fungal infections beneath the nail without damaging healthy tissue. Each 30-minute session uses photothermolysis to destroy fungal proteins, with 90% success rates in clinical studies. Includes home care products and follow-up assessments for complete nail regeneration.
Biomechanical Assessment
In-depth evaluation of foot mechanics using OptoGait technology identifies structural imbalances and movement patterns causing pain. Custom treatment plans may include orthotics, stretching programs, or shockwave therapy to address musculoskeletal issues affecting feet and lower limbs.

Report
Dr S is amazing- very compassionate and knows this business inside and out. She has helped me to get rid of a toe fungus that has been bothering me for years- also My pinkie toenails were black when I went to see her - and she has restored them to their normal color-
I also need to mention that she is helping me with orthotics which has relieved some back pain -
She is truly a Godsend- her staff is also very accommodating and personable
