Services
Ingrown Toenail Removal
Our minor surgical procedure effectively treats ingrown toenails using local anaesthesia. The treatment involves careful removal of problematic nail sections while preserving healthy tissue. Patients typically experience immediate pain relief with minimal post-operative discomfort, allowing quick return to normal activities. This service is particularly beneficial for recurring cases requiring long-term solutions.
Verruca Treatments
We offer multiple evidence-based verruca treatment options including Swift Microwave Therapy, cryotherapy, and needling techniques. Our approach combines modern technology with proven methods to stimulate immune response and eliminate viral infections. Each treatment plan considers lesion location, patient age, and previous treatment history to maximise effectiveness while minimising discomfort.
Orthotics
Customised orthotic devices are created following detailed biomechanical assessments. We provide both heat-moulded Vasyli orthotics and fully casted custom solutions to address gait abnormalities and foot pain. These devices help redistribute pressure, improve alignment, and enhance overall foot function for both acute and chronic conditions.
Fungal Nail Treatment
Our clinic employs advanced treatment methods like Clearanail and Lacuna systems for fungal nail infections. These techniques use micro-penetration technology to enhance topical medication absorption while preserving nail structure. Combined with traditional antifungal treatments, this approach improves cure rates and cosmetic outcomes for affected toenails.
Biomechanical Assessment
Comprehensive lower limb assessments identify movement abnormalities causing foot and ankle pain. Using advanced diagnostic techniques, we evaluate joint function, muscle strength, and pressure distribution patterns. This information guides custom treatment plans incorporating orthotics, mobilisation techniques, or targeted exercises to restore normal biomechanics.

Highly professional and effective treatment - I'm delighted that Valerie solved my problem. I'd tried various over the counter treatments a few times - although they initially seemed to do the job, they weren't effective long term. After it came back yet again, I went to see Valerie at the St John's Foot Clinic. Her treatment sorted it out with only a couple of visits - I'm so pleased that it's finally fixed. If I need treatment for other foot issues, I would definitely come here.

I went to these lovely ladies as i was sick and tired of having verrucas. I had mosaic verrucas and they were so painful, walking was a nightmare because of the pressure on my heel. I had tried everything, from filing (don't do that), over the counter, cutting (don't do that either) you name it i tried it, ( even the duct tape, didn't work). I then decides to try swift, a new treatment which has had great success. Now because i had so many (only one heel mind you) I wasn't even sure if it was going to work. It's not cheap by all means but by this point i was willing to try anything!! Both Valerie

I can certainly recommend St John's Foot Clinic for verruca treatment. I received 3 treatments over 3 months, with a follow-up appointment 2 months later. I began the process with 3 verrucas and thanks to Swift microwave therapy they are all gone. The facility is clean, the service professional, the risks and options are clearly explained.
