“They are a dedicated group of specialists committed to providing exceptional, patient-centred care to our patients,” - Jonathan Tayler, Service Manager for Podiatry at Royal Surrey Hospital.

Step this way as we highlight its brilliant Podiatry team 👣 #

The Podiatry team cares for patients with a wide variety of foot-related issues. Six podiatrists, one podiatry apprentice, three senior podiatry assistants, three podiatry assistants and three admin staff make up the team.

They are heavily involved in the local community running clinics at Cranleigh Hospital, Milford Hospital, Haslemere Hospital and the Jarvis Centre. Currently the team supports over 4,000 patients and can see over 300 in one week.

Emma Cree, Podiatry Admin Lead and Administrator, said: “We are a very experienced team with a wealth of knowledge on all footcare needs... our patients are always pleased with the treatment they receive.”

Fabulous footwork Podiatry team :-)

Natalie is a third year Midwifery Student at the University of Surrey. If you’re considering a role in the NHS after receiving your GCSE results , read her top three tips on how to find the right role for you.

1. Read up. Try and do lots of reading around the area that you want to go in to.

2. Go and visit some universities if you can, before you make any big decisions. That really helped me solidify that ‘yes, that’s absolutely where I want to be and what I’d like to do’ feeling.

3. Take your time and work through each stage. I needed to go back and get a few more qualifications before I could apply. So, I completed an access to midwifery course online and retook two of my GCSEs to give me the best possible chance.

There are more than 350 different careers available in the NHS, so no matter what subjects you’ve taken, there will be a role for you.
