Clinical or General Podiatry is a branch of Podiatry associated with the care and treatment of the skin and nails of the feet, together with the overall health and wellbeing of the lower limbs. This includes the health of structures like blood vessels and nerves, which may be adversely affected in conditions like diabetes.
Podiatrists (formerly known as Chiropodists) work to improve the mobility, independence and the quality of life for their patients by providing assessment, diagnosis, treatment and preventative care of a wide range of problems affecting the feet, ankles and lower limbs. However, most people will simply see a podiatrist for Nail Cutting, Corn and Callous care etc.

During a Warwickshire Podiatry appointment, your Warwickshire Podiatrist will examine your feet and ankles, ask you about your symptoms and medical history. They may refer for diagnostic tests such as X-rays, MRI scans, Ultrasound Scans, or blood tests. They will then develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs, and if suitable, treat you for your presenting symptoms within your first visit.
Our Warwickshire Podiatrists offer a wide range of treatments, from nail cutting, callous and corn care, and verruca treatment to medication, physical therapy, custom orthotics, surgery, and more. The type of treatment recommended by your Warwickshire Podiatrist will depend on the specific condition being treated and the severity of the symptoms.
