Full-Time Podiatrist – FootHouse
Folkestone, Kent

FootHouse is a modern podiatry and biomechanics clinic seeking a full-time Podiatrist to join our growing team.

This is a varied clinical role offering the opportunity to work across both routine podiatry and more advanced MSK and biomechanics cases. We welcome applications from experienced clinicians, particularly those with a strong interest or background in MSK.

The role includes:
• General podiatry and routine care
• MSK / biomechanics assessments
• Gait analysis and orthotic prescription
• Nail surgery
• Verrucae treatment
• Domiciliary (home visit) care

We are a family run business, offering a friendly, supportive environment with access to advanced clinical tools, an established patient base, and the opportunity to develop within biomechanics and specialist areas.

Applicants must be HCPC registered, demonstrate excellent patient care and communication skills, and be confident working both independently and as part of a team. A full UK driving license is preferred due to the domiciliary element of the role.

To apply, please send your CV and a short cover letter to info@foothouse.co.uk or contact us directly for an informal discussion.

Are Custom Foot Orthotics the Best Choice?

Most people think “custom orthotics” means high‑tech scans, 3D printing, and a device shaped exactly like their foot.
But that’s not what bespoke really means.

A true bespoke orthotic is one that:

• Fits the shoes you actually wear
• Changes the forces acting on your foot and lower limb
• Is designed specifically for your diagnosis and your goals

And here’s the key:
Many different types of orthotics can achieve this — from simple, low‑cost devices to advanced 3D‑printed designs.

What matters isn’t the price or the technology.
What matters is the clinical reasoning behind it.

A proper bespoke orthotic intervention requires:

1. A confident diagnosis — knowing exactly which tissue is injured
2. A biomechanical exam — understanding why it’s injured
3. A targeted plan — using orthotics, exercises, footwear, and load management to reduce the forces causing the problem

That’s why at FootHouse Podiatry we always start with one question:

“Who are you?”

Because when we understand you — your body, your activities, your shoes, your goals — we can design the orthotic solution that’s truly bespoke.

Not the most expensive.
Not the most high‑tech.
Just the one that works best for you.
