Bespoke Orthotics
Precision-engineered shoe inserts created using 3D optical scanning technology to address foot, knee, and lower back pain. Each pair is tailored to individual biomechanics with a lifetime guarantee against breakage. Ideal for conditions ranging from plantar fasciitis to Morton's neuroma, these orthotics offer superior support compared to off-the-shelf alternatives.
Verruca Needling

Delivers immune system activation for lasting results, particularly effective for chronic cases resistant to other treatments. Includes comprehensive post-operative care with follow-up appointments to ensure complete resolution.

Nigel is fabulous, I would definitely recommend him. So friendly and welcoming. I visited Nigel for the removal corn on the heel of my feet which had caused me pain for years. The pain has gone and my feet look so much better now. The treatment was also pain free. Thank you Nigel!

Nigel is Incredible!! I took in my just turned 4 year old daughter to see him. She had been suffering with such a painful verruca for 8/9 months and Nigel was brilliant. He gave me a free consultation over the phone and made me aware of what he was going to do. My daughter was terrified of anyone going near her foot and Nigel spent some time playing with her, calming her down and gaining her trust and was so helpful. He was very informative and has been so patient with her. 2 sessions later it was gone and I cant thank him enough!!

I have been going to Nigel for a very long time and it just struck me today after my appointment that I have never left a review. Nigel is unfailingly polite and caring. He will go the extra mile to make one feel relaxed and confident. I know that my feet are in very good hands at The Podiatry Centre.

My son was seen at very short notice this morning after an injury to his toe! I wanted to write a post here just to say how lovely the podiatrist was with my son and how efficient and professional the whole service was. I send big thanks and would highly recommend. Sarah Alpert.

I walked into Nigel's Podiatry Practice with a foot problem I didn't know how to manage. I had an unexplained tiny dark brown spot on my left foot, causing me pain when stepping on it, and sometimes even at rest, with no pressure. Two doctors told me it was a foreign body that would remove itself naturally, when initially it wasn't causing me pain. Though when it started to cause me trouble and play up, I had to do something.
Nigel patiently listened to me as I explained the problem, from the onset to the present time and did a thorough examination too. He provided me with a detailed diagnosis

My daughter saw Nigel for a persistent verucca which I had tried to treat at home with no success. My daughter has anxiety issues and was absolutely petrified going to see him. Nigel put her at ease and decided the lease painful method was best for her. We had 3 further visits but the verucca has now gone. Thank you Nigel for your care and consideration in treating my daughter.
