Expert podiatry — a direct Northern line journey from NW3
Free ingrown toenail photo assessment is available for NW3. Send a photo of your toe by WhatsApp, or use the assessment form below, for an initial ingrown toenail assessment. It does not replace an in-person consultation.
Answer a few questions to find the right level of care for your foot problem.
What best describes your foot problem?
Belsize Park residents benefit from a direct Northern line connection to Anna Green's podiatry clinic in Hendon. Just a few stops north on the Edgware branch brings you to Hendon Central, with the clinic a 5-minute walk away.
Anna is widely trusted by patients across NW3 for her expertise in ingrown toenail surgery. The phenol matrixectomy technique she uses provides permanent results in a single 60-minute appointment, with over 90% success in published studies, with some large series reporting 95–98% recurrence-free at 6–24 months when proper technique and aftercare are followed. Anna offers both Partial Nail Avulsion (removing just the ingrown edge) and Total Nail Avulsion (removing the full nail) — the right choice depends on the extent of the ingrowth, and sometimes a hybrid approach works best.
Surgery costs £286 all-inclusive — consultation, procedure, sterile materials, and two follow-up appointments. No hidden fees, no surprise charges. Emergency appointments are available within 24 hours for £500, for patients experiencing severe pain or signs of infection.
In addition to nail surgery, Anna offers a full range of podiatric services: routine chiropody, diabetic foot care, fungal nail treatment, verruca removal, and children's podiatry with no minimum age. Her warm, professional manner puts nervous patients at ease.
The clinic at Sabel Chemist is on the ground floor with no steps, making it suitable for patients of all abilities. Routine appointments are Mon–Thu 9am–3pm; Sunday and evening slots are by arrangement for emergency nail surgery only.
Anna's credentials include HCPC registration (CH23500), BUPA Fee Assured status, and Royal College of Podiatry membership (#26614). She has over 20 years of experience in both NHS and private settings.
Belsize Park is well served by the Royal Free Hospital for emergencies, but for planned podiatry and nail surgery at competitive prices, Anna's Hendon clinic provides the specialist care, personal attention, and transparent pricing that hospital outpatient departments often lack.

If the toe is hot, swollen or oozing, if the redness is spreading up the foot, or if you feel feverish or unwell, please call 111 or ask your GP to see you the same day, and go to A&E if you feel very unwell. Please do the same if you have diabetes, poor circulation or a weakened immune system, as a toe can change quickly and is best looked at in person.
A photo assessment is a guide to your next step, not urgent care, and a reply can take a few hours. See the signs that need urgent care.

"I caught the Northern line from Belsize Park after work and was home by 7. Anna fitted me in for a 5:30 appointment, which is impossible to get on the NHS. My toe was sorted in one visit."
