Podiatry

Corns and calluses are areas of thickened skin that develop to protect your feet from repeated friction, pressure, or ill-fitting footwear. While they start as a natural defence mechanism, they can eventually become deeply impacted, painful, and uncomfortable to walk on.

Our Treatment Approach: Professional podiatric care involves the painless debridement of thickened skin using specialised podiatric instruments. Most importantly, we address the underlying biomechanical causes to prevent them from returning. Podiatrists may also apply protective padding or prescribe foot orthotics to prevent the problem from recurring. 

Foot wounds and ulcers are serious skin breaks that require immediate, specialised medical attention to prevent severe complications and dangerous infections. These open sores often develop from minor irritations or wounds coupled with poor circulation or reduced nerve sensation.

Our Treatment Approach: Our clinical team focuses on advanced wound care, offloading pressure, and promoting healing to protect your overall limb health. Podiatric treatment involves specialised dressings to promote wound healing, alongside sharp debridement of devitalised tissue. For wounds related to mechanical problems, our podiatrists use customised orthotics or insoles for strategic pressure offloading to accelerate healing.
