At Valley Road Podiatry, a firm belief is held that good healthcare practice is forged in public health.
Podiatry sits on the front line far more than many people realise. From limb loss prevention, ulcer care and infection management through to biomechanics, mobility and long term function. The era of being seen as glorified nail technicians is long behind us.
Over the last year, the practice has operated on a condensed clinic schedule while I have been working further afield in South Yorkshire within NHS services. That experience has been demanding, grounding, and professionally stretching. It has reinforced exactly why public health matters, and why high quality podiatry access matters locally.
I am now moving into a post closer to home.
As a result, I am pleased to announce that from Monday 26 January, Valley Road Podiatry will be expanding its opening times to include weekday evenings.
This change is about accessibility, sustainability, and continuing to deliver clinically robust care that sits comfortably between public health values and private practice delivery.
Evenings are coming.
