🚨 New Specialist Service – Neurological & Complex Gait Assessment Now Available in Derry!

We’re delighted to announce that Foyle Foot & Ankle Clinic will be hosting Conor McDaid (MSc Advanced Clinical Practice, BSc Prosthetics & Orthotics) from Great Gait Ltd, Liverpool, for a specialist clinic offering services that are not currently available anywhere else in Derry or the North West.

👣 Conor is a highly experienced clinician specialising in prosthetics, orthotics, and advanced gait analysis for patients with neurological or complex lower-limb conditions.

This clinic is designed for individuals who may:
🧠 Have a neurological condition (such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, or spinal injury)
🦵 Use splints, braces, or orthoses but still struggle with walking or balance
🚶 Experience abnormal gait patterns due to weakness, spasticity, or joint restrictions
🦴 Have foot, ankle, knee or hip deformities that significantly impact how they walk

Using state-of-the-art gait analysis technology, Conor provides:
✅ Comprehensive gait assessment with video and pressure mapping
✅ Expert advice on splint optimisation and orthotic prescription
✅ Bespoke orthotic design and referral for prosthetic review if required
✅ Detailed clinical report and rehabilitation recommendations

This is an exceptional opportunity for patients and referring clinicians across the North West who want access to advanced, Liverpool-level expertise — without leaving Derry.

🗓️ Clinic Dates: 20th & 21st November 2025
📍 Location: Foyle Foot & Ankle Clinic, Rathmor Centre, Derry
📞 To register interest or book an appointment: Call 02871 730 220 or message our page
🌐 www.foylefootclinic.co.uk

🧠 Why it matters:
Many neurological and complex gait patients rely on NHS splinting services with limited capacity for detailed biomechanical analysis. This collaboration bridges that gap — offering functional assessment, evidence-based orthotic solutions, and a chance to improve independence, walking comfort, and quality of life.

🩺 Did you know your podiatrist can perform an EKG (electrocardiogram) at Foyle Foot Clinic?

As Clinical Specialist Podiatrists, we don’t just look at your feet — we look at the whole picture.
Using our in-clinic EKG machine, we can record your heart’s electrical activity in real time.

This is particularly useful when:
✅ Assessing circulatory concerns in the lower limbs
✅ Checking for irregular heart rhythms such as atrial fibrillation (AF) — sometimes first detected during a podiatry visit
✅ Monitoring patients with diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, or unexplained swelling or numbness
✅ Ensuring it’s safe to proceed with certain treatments or medications

By identifying changes in heart rhythm early, we can help guide you toward the right medical care and improve your overall health outcomes — not just your foot health.

At Foyle Foot Clinic, we believe in whole-body care through advanced technology and early detection.
