Services
Chiropody
Our chiropody services address common foot problems including corns, calluses, and ingrown toenails. Using sterile instruments and local anaesthesia when required, we provide pain relief and preventive care. Patients receive footwear advice to maintain foot health post-treatment.
Podiatry
Comprehensive podiatry care covers biomechanical assessments, gait analysis, and treatment for chronic conditions. We manage complex cases like plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis using ultrasound and laser therapies for non-invasive pain management.
Nail Fungus Treatment
PACT Med therapy uses photoactivated antimicrobial chemotherapy to treat fungal nail infections. This pain-free process involves gel application and light therapy over six months, with visible improvement even in severe cases requiring combined treatment methods.
Home Visits
Home visiting services operate Tuesday-Thursday afternoons for patients unable to attend the clinic. Our fully equipped team provides the same range of treatments at home, including minor surgery and diabetic foot assessments with no additional charges.
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialist diabetic foot assessments identify ulceration risks and circulation issues. We provide regular monitoring, wound care, and pressure relief treatments to prevent complications. Patients receive education on daily foot checks and proper footwear selection.

Report
I developed a shocking verruca which was extremely painful, I was limping all the time it caused me so much pain, I tried treating it myself but with no improvement, so I went to see Philip at Podimed, he actually said that in all his 44 years of treating verrucas mine was one of the worst he had ever seen. Its took six months of regular treatment but its gone, Im so relieved I despaired of ever getting rid of the thing. Thank you Philip you are amazing.

So far, it has cured my Herpes eliminated my Cold sore, improved energy and metabolism, in the morning I feel recharged and I no longer feel sleepy after a meal. As for the scent, it does smell like chocolate cream but I chase it down with 100% Cranberry Juice 1tsp. twice a day AFTER a meal. Contact: CALL/WHATSAPP +2348054569567..
