There is a Podiatry service available through the PCN. The Doctor will refer you if they think that this service will be beneficial for you.
Foot assessments and ongoing care for patients with foot problems who have an at risk medical status, i.e. people with diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, peripheral arterial disease, people who are taking Warfarin and steroids, people who are immunocompromised, e.g. receiving chemotherapy, HIV+ and people who have neurological deficit to their lower limbs.
This service also offers assessments and ongoing care for people who have no medical risk and these patients are placed onto curative/short term treatment plans.
Our Podiatrist is based at MHC on Thursdays, and at other locations other days of the week (if Thursdays didn’t suit you).
See the meet the team section of the website to find out more about our ’Podiatrist’.
