Not Sure What You Need? Quick Symptom Check

Answer a few questions to find the right level of care for your foot problem.

What best describes your foot problem?

Finchley residents — whether in East Finchley, Finchley Central, or North Finchley — are among the closest patients to Anna Green's Hendon podiatry clinic. The journey from any part of Finchley takes just 10–15 minutes by car or public transport, making specialist foot care genuinely convenient.

Anna is one of North West London's most experienced ingrown toenail surgeons — offering what many patients search for as "ingrown toenail removal", the same procedure under a more common name. She uses the phenol matrixectomy technique, which permanently removes the problematic nail edge and prevents regrowth. 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. This is a well-established procedure with long-term success rates of 90–95% when proper technique and aftercare are followed.

Standard surgery costs £286 all-inclusive — this covers your consultation, the procedure, all sterile materials, and two follow-up appointments at 48–72 hours and 2 weeks after surgery. There are no hidden fees. Emergency surgery for severe pain or infection is available within 24 hours for £500.

Beyond nail surgery, Anna provides the full range of podiatry services: routine chiropody and nail care (from £40), diabetic foot assessments, fungal nail treatment, verruca care, and podiatry for children and teenagers. With over 20 years of NHS and private experience, her care is thorough, gentle, and efficient.

Finchley has excellent local healthcare infrastructure including the Walk-in Centre at Finchley Memorial Hospital (open 8am–8pm daily) for minor injuries and illnesses. However, for specialist podiatry — particularly nail surgery — Anna's dedicated clinic offers the focused expertise that generalist services cannot provide.

The clinic at Sabel Chemist (116 Brent Street, Hendon NW4 2DT) has ground-floor access with no steps, on-street parking, and is a 5-minute walk from Hendon Central station. Routine appointments Mon–Thu 9am–3pm; Sunday and evening slots by arrangement for emergency nail surgery.

Anna is HCPC registered (CH23500), BUPA Fee Assured (member 310655), and a member of the Royal College of Podiatry (#26614). She accepts card, cash, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and BUPA insurance. Finchley patients can book online, by phone, or via WhatsApp.

Patients from across the Finchley area — including Woodside Park, Church End, Dollis Park, Tally Ho Corner, and the Ballards Lane corridor — have been trusting Anna with their foot care for years. Whether you need urgent surgery or routine chiropody, you're welcome.

What Finchley Patients Say

"I live on Ballards Lane and my GP said the NHS podiatry wait was 10 weeks. Anna saw me the same week. Two stops on the Northern line from Finchley Central — couldn't be easier."

— Tom, Finchley Central

"Anna treated my father's feet for years. When I developed an ingrown toenail myself, there was no question where I'd go. She's thorough, gentle, and genuinely cares. The Holders Hill Road drive from East Finchley takes no time."

— Rachel, East Finchley

Frequently Asked Questions — Finchley

How much does ingrown toenail surgery cost in Finchley?

Anna Green charges £286 for standard ingrown toenail surgery, which includes the consultation, procedure, all materials, and two follow-up appointments. Emergency surgery within 24 hours costs £500. The clinic is at Sabel Chemist, 116 Brent Street, Hendon NW4 2DT.

How do I get to the podiatrist from Finchley?

You can reach Anna's clinic at 116 Brent Street, Hendon NW4 2DT by several routes. Finchley Central station (Northern line) to Hendon Central — approx. 8 minutes, then 5 min walk. East Finchley station (Northern line) — 4 stops to Hendon Central. Drive via Holders Hill Road or A1/A41 — approx. 10–12 minutes. Bus 143 from North Finchley towards Brent Street. On-street parking available on Brent Street, NW4 2DT. The clinic is on the ground floor with step-free access.

Is the surgery painful?

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during surgery. The anaesthetic injection itself causes a brief sharp sting lasting a few seconds. Most patients describe the experience as much less painful than they expected.

Which part of Finchley is closest to Anna's clinic?

East Finchley is closest — about 10 minutes by car via Holders Hill Road. Finchley Central is a quick tube ride (Northern line to Hendon Central, 2 stops). Even North Finchley is only 12-15 minutes by car.

The Finchley Walk-in Centre is near me — can they treat my ingrown toenail?

The walk-in centre at Finchley Memorial Hospital handles minor injuries and illnesses but doesn't perform nail surgery. They may advise you to see a podiatrist, in which case Anna can see you — usually within days rather than weeks.

My GP in Finchley wants to refer me to a podiatrist on the NHS — how long is the wait?

NHS podiatry waiting times in the Barnet area are typically 6-12 weeks. As a private practitioner, Anna can usually see you within a few days. No referral is needed — you can book directly.
