Podiatry

Whether you are searching for a qualified chiropodist or a professional podiatrist in Henfield or the surrounding area within West Sussex, our aim is to keep you walking (or running!), enabling you to "Put Your Best Foot Forward"

We deal with a wide range of conditions including bunions, painful corns and callus (hard skin), cracked heels, Athlete's Foot and other skin problems, toenail deformities including thickened and fungal nails, ingrown toenails, heel pain, pain in the ball of the foot, ankle sprains and strains, verrucas and diabetes complications.............to mention but a few.

From simple toenail cutting to ingrown toenail surgery, and specialist biomechanical assessment and orthotic prescriptions (helping you to stand and walk better), we have a range of treatments to keep you happily mobile.

 

We also work with our in-house osteopaths - foot function can be affected by postural issues or joint problems and, conversely,  without a stable foundation the whole body suffers . This enables us to treat your problems comprehensively. 

As Chiropodists in the UK have progressed their skills and knowledge substantially in recent years, the new international term of Podiatrist has been adopted. You will find that many foot specialists still call themselves Chiropodists, whilst others have already embraced the new title of Podiatrist. Whatever title your foot specialist is using, what really matters is that they have the appropriate skills to help you and that they are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).

At db Foot Clinic, having a fully qualified team of dedicated podiatrists enables us to be able to offer a full range of treatments. The combined experience of our practitioners means that they have a wealth of knowledge to be able to treat your feet in the most effective and efficient way.

The clinic also works closely with the local medical centres and GPs, and is therefore able to request (with your permission) that you are seen for tests, antibiotics and other checks etc if needed.

In addition to providing a general chiropody service, we also provide:

This involves a detailed examination of your feet at rest, and whilst standing and walking. As your feet are the foundations of your musculo-skeletal system, additional information from other parts of your body such as your knees, hips, spinal column etc, is also noted. After examination, orthotics (shoe inserts) may be prescribed to correct your stance and gait, improving your overall mobility.

This is for procedures such as ingrowing toenail surgery, which we are able to do in-house.

A new, non-invasive approach to treating ingrowing toenails, which may be suitable for some patients.
