Your podiatrist will then carry out a thorough assessment of your feet before providing treatment where appropriate.

Before you leave, we’ll offer practical advice to help maintain your foot health and reduce the likelihood of future problems.

Preventative Approach

We don’t simply treat today’s problem—we help you keep your feet healthy for the future.

Healthy feet allow you to enjoy life without unnecessary pain or discomfort.

Whether your goal is keeping up with your grandchildren, staying active, enjoying holidays or simply walking comfortably every day, regular podiatry care can make a significant difference to your quality of life.

This depends on your individual needs. Some patients attend every 6–8 weeks for routine care, while others only visit when a specific problem develops. Your podiatrist will recommend the most appropriate review schedule for you.

Most routine podiatry treatments are comfortable and provide immediate relief. If a procedure is likely to cause discomfort, your podiatrist will explain everything beforehand.

Ingrown toenails are a common and often painful condition that can make walking, exercising and even wearing shoes uncomfortable.

At Next Step Podiatry, we aim to manage ingrown toenails using conservative (non-surgical) treatment whenever appropriate. During your appointment, your podiatrist will carefully assess your toenail, relieve any discomfort where possible and discuss the most suitable treatment options for your individual needs.

Many patients experience significant improvement with conservative management, particularly when treatment is sought early.

However, in some cases, nail surgery is the only long-term solution to permanently resolve the problem. If this is recommended, your podiatrist will explain the procedure, answer any questions and discuss your treatment options.

Nail Surgery

Nail surgery is offered as a separate package of care and includes your assessment, procedure, follow-up appointments and aftercare. Full details can be found on our dedicated Nail Surgery page.
