Specialising in

As well as providing general podiatry services I have a special interest in sports podiatry. I provide a range of services including sports injury and general rehabilitation, running assessments, video gait analysis, footwear evaluations and the provision of orthoses if needed. I can also perform paediatric (child) lower limb assessments. Podiatry to me is about keeping people active.
