Foot Care
Foot care commonly involves safely and gently removing corns and callus, and cutting toenails. All foot care is performed by a licensed chiropodist using sterilized medical instruments. The chiropodist checks the health of your feet with every visit. Local anesthetic is available for sensitive cases.
Foot Care Can Include:
-
Nail Cutting of Difficult Nails (thick, curled, etc.)
-
Filing Down of Thick Toenails
-
Corn and Callus Removal
-
Dry Skin Debridement
-
Ingrown Toenail Removal
-
Routine Nail Cutting

Ulcer/Wound Care
Who needs foot care?
Patients who require foot care may have difficulty cutting their own toenails like seniors, they may be diabetic, or they may have recurring corns/calluses/ingrown toenails that require attention.
It is common for patients to have a regularly scheduled foot care appointment every 6-8 weeks.
Regular foot care is an excellent way to have your foot health monitored and maintained.
