What is a Foot Health Professional?

 

Most people are familiar with a Chiropodist or a Podiatrist, however what is a Foot Health Professional and why should you consider seeing one?

 

Foot Health Professionals (FHPs) are qualified to treat and manage all the common conditions which can affect your feet. These include nail trimming, thickened nails, fungal nails, ingrown nails, corns, calluses, cracked heels, verrucae, routine diabetic footcare to name a few.

 

Foot Health Practitioners are trained to recognise foot conditions which require more specialist care and will refer you where necessary.

 

We also offer routine screenings and footcare for diabetic patients. It is particularly important for diabetics have their feet properly looked after - due to a higher risk of lack of sensation and poor blood circulation. Routine footcare ensures that troublesome conditions can be spotted in their infancy and referred on where necessary.
