I often get asked if I cover certain areas for home visits so I thought I would give you a ‘A-Z’ list 👇🏻
The picture isn’t the best but should give you an idea with the areas within the red line.

📍Bannockburn
📍Braehead
📍Bridge of Allan
📍Broomridge
📍Cambusbarron
📍Causewayhead
📍Cornton
📍Dunblane
📍Raploch
📍Riverside
📍Stirling
📍St Ninians
📍Torbrex
📍Whins of Milton

Over the years I’ve had to make the areas smaller that I cover compared to what I used to do 10+ years ago. Time, distance and working within school hours and balancing a diary around children’s school holidays has given me this boundary as a guide.

Usually the day before I plan to visit I will work out my route from leaving and finishing in Dunblane, I will also try to avoid doubling back to areas to help save on time, this may result in appointment times changing slightly and I hope you understand this (this is very rare as I’m pretty good with my routes after all this time; 14 years of doing home visits around here, plus I’m a local girl!)

I do not cover the local care homes. Usually these homes have their own podiatrist who visit residents. However, there may be the odd one off appt where families have prepaid me for ease, due to the patients mobility/health risks and if my diary allows. eg Bellfield Centre, Stirling

Back from holidays and all messages and calls have been dealt with. If I’ve missed anyone then please get back in touch. My diary is full for the days I’m working over the summer holidays!
This means I am unable to take on any new patients till at least end of August.
If you have a foot emergency, like a wound or a painful ingrown toe nail, then do get in touch to see if I can help 👣

Summer timetable update: I am now on leave till the 14th July.
I will try to get back to messages but there could be a delay. My voicemail has been updated.
My next block of leave will be from the 30th July till 13th August (exception for the 7th August).

Happy Summer Holidays everyone ☀️

I know it’s only the start of June but I’m a mum and a podiatrist which means I’m always planning ahead and the kids break up for their summer holidays in just over three weeks!! 🫣

Just to let you all know I am having to make some changes over the school holidays (27th June to 13th August):
• I will only be working Monday and Tuesdays.
• I will not have any new patient appointments.
• I will be on holiday wb 7th July for a week.
• I will also be off 30th July -12th August due to childcare (expect Thursday 7th August when I have prebooked appts only in).
• Priority will be given to ‘regular’ patient appointments for the remainder of August.

Thank you all for your understanding and hopefully this post will give you enough notice to get in touch if required or if you need to change any appointments then please contact asap as the diary is at max for the days I’m working 👣

Had a lovely morning doing nail surgery on a 3rd toe this morning. Yes, little nails sometimes get ingrown and need surgery too!
Happy patient at the end of the treatment and problem nail gone 👣

Now you are wondering 🤔 “how can she do nail surgery if she only does home visits?” I can still do assessments at your home and if we feel that nail surgery is the treatment plan as a curative solution, I still have links to Stirling Podiatry and can work with the owner to organise a session time at the clinic for me to perform your surgery. You are safely treated in a fabulous clinic and then dressings reviews will be done in your own home by myself.

Not foot related but a wee update on my littlest arm: back to Ortho today and as you can see from the xray there is excellent healing in just eight days since the manipulation. Can you see the healing fracture in this photo?

Back again in 3 weeks so diary shouldn’t be affected but awaiting a letter with next appt.

Thanks everyone for their messages. He is doing great and enjoying all the attention x

Hi everyone, just to let you know I may have to change upcoming appointments for some patients over the next 4-6weeks. My littlest has broken his arm and we will be having regular follow ups at FVH. Please bear with me if I change days at short notice as we all know the posties are run ragged and sometimes we don’t get appt letters till the last minute. Thank you all. Ps he’s doing great and I can’t believe his pain levels! Now to adjust to having a cast on and no football ⚽️

Good luck to everyone running today, but a special ‘go smash it’ for one of my patients 💪🏻 🏃‍♀️

Good luck to everyone running the London Marathon today! A team of podiatrists are waiting to help you at the medical stations should you need them.
