Another Conference and presentation in the bag…. Just a few more weeks of this ✈️ before my feet touch the ground again!

Today I presented with Paul Chadwick at Diabetes UK National conference in Liverpool. We delivered Bill and Pam’s Story: Spotting and Escalating diabetes related foot infections in primary care (version 6!!). The emotional script created gasps In the audience (which I loved hearing!) the feedback was heartwarming to recieve and we never tire of this storyline which is refined and developed tailoired to every conference with different messages for different audiences ❤️

As always fantastic to catch up with my podiatric surgery and Diabetes collegues. Amirah particularly flying the flag for acute podiatric surgery provision and our MDT poster and limb salvage presentation. ⭐️

Thank you for asking us to contribute. Time to repack for Monday!

Today I was privileged to have shared the stage with Matthew G. Garoufalis, DPM, FASPS, FACPM, CWS, FFPM RCPS (G, Jonas Askø Andersen and Sanjay Sharma during the Podiatric Surgery and Limb Salvage around the world session at the Global Podiatry Summit, Copenhagen 2026

I had the opportunity to speak on two areas I’m deeply passionate about: shared decision-making and limb preservation surgery in the UK—both critical to improving patient outcomes and delivering truly patient-centred care.

The session concluded with an insightful expert panel discussion exploring the future of podiatry and limb salvage on a global scale. Exciting times ahead for our profession.

Thank you for the opportunity to speak and share my experiences, and as ever to the support of my PodQueens being there when I was on my largest stage yet! 👑

First presentation in Copenhagen this week—and what an experience.🌍

I had the privilege of sharing the stage with the current President of FIP, Daniel Aharon Weisz, at the Global Podiatry Summit 2026. Together, we delivered an interactive workshop to a full room of international health care providers, exploring evidence-based practice, diagnosis, surgical techniques, and complications in nail surgery.

The level of engagement in the room was excellent, and the discussions that followed truly reflected the passion and expertise within our profession.

A sincere thank you for the invitation to speak Pauline Wilson, to the delegates for the incredibly positive feedback and for such an energising and collaborative atmosphere. ❤️

Special thanks to Caroline McIntosh and Stuart Baird for chairing our session.
Also thank you to Rena Francis and Matthew Cichero for support with the content 👣

Grateful to be part of such a forward-thinking global community. 👣

A very early start today presenting at Wound Care Today for Convatec Wound as part of a breakfast symposium — and to our surprise for 7.45am it was a full house!

I had the pleasure of presenting alongside Scarlet Milo, where we explored the science, emerging evidence, and eight real-world clinical cases using ConvaNiox. Each case reflected complex patient journeys and challenging wound presentations, yet the outcomes were excellent given the individual case circumstances.

Thank you for a great opportunity to share early insights and contribute to the evolving conversation around nitric oxide in wound care ….and to those who made it to our session.

What a day 💙

Proud to share the stage with Paul Chadwick, Emily Howorth and Jo Casey for podiatry’s first contribution to the FYA vascular-led conference in London.

We spoke about wound assessment, vascular screening, surgical decision-making and (always!) offloading — telling the story through “Giovanni”, our retired footballer navigating limb salvage.

The best part? The incredible colleagues who came to support us. That meant everything.

Finished with beautiful food and Lebanese dinner celebrations.

Grateful for this profession 👣⚽✨

I’m pleased to share that I’ve been invited to join the EWMA Diabetic Foot Committee. 👣

Diabetic foot disease remains one of the most challenging and preventable causes of morbidity worldwide, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute to collaborative, evidence-based work in this space.🌍

I’m particularly honoured to be the only UK podiatric surgeon on the committee, and I look forward to representing UK clinical perspectives from our profession, while learning from international colleagues across diabetes, vascular surgery, nursing and wound care.

I hope this role also opens up further collaboration with UK diabetes clinicians, podiatrists, surgeons and multidisciplinary teams who share a commitment to improving outcomes in diabetic foot care.👣

Please feel free to connect or reach out.🙌
Thank you for the opportunity 🙏🏻

🌏World Diabetes Day🌏

Today in our diabetic foot MDT clinic, I’m reminded why prevention—while essential—is simply not enough.

💔This week alone has been a stark reflection of the realities our patients face. An old friend, younger than me, has reached stage 5 renal failure and started dialysis. 💔We’ve supported patients making incredibly difficult decisions, including those refusing admission, and worked to personalise safe solutions while trying to prevent sepsis. 💔We’ve seen firsthand how major amputations affect not only physical health but mental wellbeing, identity, and hope. We have planned prophylactic and curative surgery for so many people to reduce their risk and promote healing of existing wounds.

❤️And in the middle of all that, we were hugged by a patient in tears—tears of relief and joy—because her wound has finally healed, and she can now go on to have the reconstructive surgery she’s been waiting for!

Our MDT is incredible. Their compassion, expertise, and relentless commitment change lives every day. But the broader system still has gaps. Prevention matters, empowerment matters—but they must be supported by timely access, integrated care, and the resources needed to intervene early and effectively.👣

Today, we celebrate the work our teams do⭐️ but refferal numbers are increasing and work forces and resources are not.
We recommit to pushing for more—more equity, more support, more coordinated care—so fewer people fall through the gaps.

Prevention is vital.🙌
Empowerment is essential.💪
But together, we must do more.💔

Delighted to have presented at my first Convatec Symposium today at FDUK/Wounds UK in Harrogate!

It was a privilege to share the stage with Professor Michael Edmonds and Scarlet to discuss our real-world data and clinical experience using the nitric oxide dressing in chronic wound management.

With its ease of application, notable improvement in wound metrics, enhanced granulation, and excellent feedback from our multidisciplinary teams involved in shared patient care, I was proud to share our positive outcomes with the wider FDUK community.

A huge thank you to Convatec for the opportunity and to everyone who contributed to making this work possible.

✨ Excited to announce that I’ll be sharing the stage with Professor Mike Edmunds at Wounds UK Annual Conference 2025!

We’ll be presenting our findings on ConvaNOx dressings — a novel, multimodal, nitric oxide–generating wound dressing — following three months of real-world evaluation.

I’m really looking forward to discussing how this innovative technology is showing promise in improving clinical outcomes and advancing wound care practice.

Happy World Allied Health Professions Day 2025! 🎉

Proud to be part of the AHP family — Podiatric Surgeons at Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust — bringing together a wealth of experience, knowledge, care, and compassion for our patients every day.

Just last week, we were delighted to submit our service poster, “From Clinic to Theatre: Enhancing Engagement Between Podiatry, Podiatric Surgery, Endocrine, Vascular and Orthopaedics,” benchmarking our outcomes in amputation reduction and sharing positive Friends & Family feedback.

AHPs’ Day is a celebration of the UK’s third-largest healthcare workforce — professionals who work collaboratively to deliver exceptional, patient-centred care.

Here’s to continued teamwork, innovation, and making a difference — one step at a time. 👣💙

Today at Great Western Hospital, I bumped into someone I know rather well… me.
Apparently, I’m now part of the corridor décor!

I’m humbled to be featured as an AHP Consultant Podiatric Surgeon — not just for the recognition, but because it shines a light on the vital work podiatry does in preventing amputations, improving quality of life, and advocating for patients.

To my colleagues: thank you for making every day meaningful, you’re the reason I smile in the poster… and in real life.

(Also, if you catch me giving my own photo a high-five in the corridor 🙏🏻… no you didn’t, although I suspect our Trainee in Podiatric Surgery Amirah Barwise may capture the evidence!)
