Services
Biomechanical Examinations
Our biomechanical examinations use Gaitscan technology to identify subtle gait imperfections. This service addresses pathologies across all age groups through precise motion analysis. Specialised orthotics are prescribed following comprehensive joint mobility assessments.
Swift Microwave Therapy
Swift microwave therapy delivers targeted thermal energy for verruca removal. This non-invasive treatment requires no dressings and typically resolves cases in three sessions. Each 5-second application provides immediate patient relief.
Routine Treatment
We provide essential foot health maintenance including nail trimming, callus reduction, and skin care. Our conservative treatments address common foot problems through regular appointments tailored to individual needs.
Orthotics
Prescription orthotics are custom-designed following biomechanical assessments. These medical devices control abnormal motion patterns, addressing specific gait issues identified through Gaitscan analysis.
Emergency Appointments
Emergency podiatry services prioritise high-risk patients with infected wounds or acute skin/nail conditions. We provide rapid pain relief for diabetic patients and those requiring urgent intervention.

Having tried treating my issue for 4/5 years with every product available over the counter, as well as via the NHS, I'm grateful to have found Peter. His skills, professionalism and advanced treatment has had a hugely positive impact and I'm on my way to a full resolution. Highly recommend, very fair pricing, couldn't ask for more.

Report
Mr Thomson and his team are simply brilliant. I had a nasty group of verrucas which I'd had for 7+ years and thought they were never going to go away. I had tried over the counter treatments, 3 different chiropodists/podiatrists until I found this place. After more persistent and focused treatments the verrucas are all gone and I couldn't be happier. Very reasonable prices; very efficient booking system. Cannot recommend highly enough!
