Services
Ingrown Toenails
Our clinic specialises in treating ingrown toenails through conservative management and minor surgical procedures. We assess each case individually to determine the most appropriate intervention, whether it's nail bracing, partial removal, or permanent correction techniques. Patients receive post-treatment advice to prevent recurrence and maintain healthy nail growth.
Fungal Nails
We offer comprehensive treatment for fungal nail infections, including the Lunula laser system and topical antifungal therapies. Our approach combines medical treatment with preventive strategies to address both current infections and reduce reinfection risks. Patients receive guidance on footwear hygiene and nail care practices.
Diabetic Footcare
Our team provides specialised foot assessments and ongoing care for diabetic patients, including regular check-ups and early intervention for potential complications. We monitor circulation, nerve function, and skin integrity while offering nail care and corn removal services to prevent serious foot problems.
Verrucae Treatment
We utilise evidence-based treatments for verrucae, including Swift Microwave Therapy and needling procedures. Our practitioners assess each case to determine the most effective approach based on the patient's medical history and verrucae characteristics, providing follow-up care to ensure complete resolution.
Shockwave Therapy
This advanced treatment option addresses chronic foot pain conditions like plantar fasciitis through targeted acoustic wave therapy. The non-invasive procedure stimulates healing in affected tissues, with treatment plans typically involving multiple sessions spaced over several weeks for optimal results.
