Fees and Charges *

Chiropody / Podiatry£65

We will remove corns, calluses, hard skin, and trim nails. We will also check for athlete’s foot, nail fungus, and verrucas, as well as providing advice on your general foot health and care.

Verrucae – Initial Consultation£65

At this appointment we will confirm the location & size of the verrucae. Then depending on your age and the size/ location of the infections, we will advise the best course of treatment for you personally & the associated costs. We offer surgical removal, chemical options and a medical laser.

Fungal Nails – Initial Consultation£65

At this appointment we will confirm the infection and discuss the appropriate treatment for you. This may be either chemical lacquer, oral antifungals or medical laser.
If we need to confirm the exact infection we will culture the infection, at a fee of £20.
Oral antifungals require an additional kidney function test.

Ingrown Nail Treatment£160

Removal of the ingrowing nail section under local anaesthetic. One dressing appointment is included if necessary. Antibiotics can be prescribed for an additional fee.  
Please note. Over seventy per cent of patients do not require further treatment.

Nail SurgeryFrom £350

Nail surgery permanently narrows the nail and removes part of the nail root to treat persistent ingrowing nails. We offer this treatment, with and without ‘phenol’. This chemical inhibits regrowth of the nail matrix, thereby reducing the risk of the ingrowing nail returning. One dressing appointment is included if necessary.
Approximately ninety-nine per cent of people undergoing this surgery do not need further treatment.

Shock Wave Therapy£107

This non-invasive treatment uses high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. It is commonly used to treat Plantar Fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis but is also useful in the management of heel spurs, Morton’s Neuroma, stress fractures, bursitis and shin splints.
It is particularly effective for chronic conditions that have not responded well to standard treatments such as medication or physical therapy.

Consultation for Foot Pain£160

During this consultation we will explore the possible causes – an injury or fracture, a gait, muscle or tendon problem, or a disease like arthritis. We will test for restricted movement of the hip, knee or foot joints, and also for over tight muscles and tendons or weak muscle or tendon groups. This consultation may include some gait analysis, such as a slow motion filmed assessment of you walking and running.  We will also advise you about additional tests, x-rays, MRi’s or ultrasounds that may be required and the associated costs.
We will give you a printed personal exercise programme, with easy to follow diagrams, for you to take home.

Verruca: Medical Laser TreatmentFrom £180

These fees will be discussed with you during your initial consultation, as they depend on the number of verrucas and their size & location.

Fungal Nail: Medical Laser TreatmentSingle treatment £125

During your initial consultation the number of treatments you require and their schedule will be discussed with you.

Consultation for Foot Surgery£160

With Ms Diane Nicholl, Consultant Podiatric Surgeon.
This consultation is primarily to discuss the surgical correction of bunions, hallux valgus, arthritic joints, deformed toes or neuroma, etc. The consultation will also cover: whether all non-surgical options have been explored; the surgical options available and the pros and cons of those procedures; the fees and schedule for possible surgery. Where necessary, other tests and imaging will be discussed, along with their associated costs.

Gait Analysis£290

For ongoing pain in your feet, ankles, knees or hips when running or walking, as well as the best treatment option if you suspect you have poor posture or gait. We will do in-depth measurements of how you walk and load your feet through the gait cycle using our real-time pressure plate system. We will check the alignment of your joints and how you move while walking and running. We will also check for weak, tight or unbalanced muscle groups.

Digital Foot Scan & Custom Orthotics (First pair)£350

Additional pairs of orthotics, ordered at the same time or at a later date:£320 per pair

Non-custom OrthoticsFrom £68

These orthotics last about a year, and are sometimes called ‘temporary orthotics’. They are not ‘handmade’ for you, but come in different ‘standard’ prescriptions. You will be offered the prescription that most closely suits your condition.

Orthotic Annual Review£160

We recommend regular reviews to check that your devices are still providing the optimum correction. 

During this consultation we will also check how you are loading the devices and your gait while wearing them. We will also test muscle groups to ensure they are sufficiently flexible and balanced. The orthotics will also be checked to ensure they still have sufficient padding or if a refurbishment is required. If a new prescription is required, this and the associated costs will be made clear.

Refurbish OrthoticsFrom £120

If the main shell of the orthotic is undamaged the padding and top covers can be replaced.
