Foot Health

So what happens during an appointment?

Initial Consultation

During your first consultation, Marianne will examine your feet and discuss your pain and discomfort in order to reach a diagnosis. Based on this diagnosis, we will explain your treatment plan and begin the treatment and also provide practical advice on the footwear and the foot care that will help to prevent the condition from arising again.   If you are wearing nail varnish, please try and remove it before Marianne arrives.    It would be appreciated if you could soak your feet before your appointment in warm soapy water – but this is not essential.   If you would like Marianne to wash your feet for you, please do ask!

Follow Up

The majority of our treatments can be completed on your first session. Some treatments, such as verrucae, may take a number of sessions.  However, these sessions are normally shorter, as we are already aware and informed of your condition.

Allow approximately 45 minutes for your first appointment and consultation. Your medical history will be taken, and an initial assessment conducted during which time the majority of foot problems can be diagnosed/treated.

We will take the time to discuss any problems or concerns you have. After a thorough examination of your feet, your treatment plan can begin.
