Expert nail surgery and podiatry — your closest specialist
Free ingrown toenail photo assessment is available for NW11, N2. 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?
Hampstead Garden Suburb residents are among the closest to Anna Green's podiatry clinic in Hendon. With just a short drive along the A1 or a quick bus ride, you can access specialist foot care that would otherwise require a trip into central London.
Anna specialises in ingrown toenail surgery — also known as ingrown toenail removal — using the phenol matrixectomy technique, a well-established procedure that 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. With long-term success rates of 90–95% when proper technique and aftercare are followed, this is the most effective treatment for recurring ingrown toenails.
Surgery costs £286 all-inclusive: consultation, procedure, sterile materials, and two follow-up appointments. No hidden fees. Emergency appointments are available within 24 hours for £500 for patients in severe pain or with signs of infection.
Many families in Hampstead Garden Suburb value Anna's combination of clinical expertise and personal, unhurried care. She treats every patient as an individual — whether you're a teenager with a first ingrown toenail, an active adult who needs quick recovery, or an elderly patient who needs gentle handling.
Beyond nail surgery, Anna offers routine chiropody (£40), diabetic foot assessments, fungal nail treatment, verruca care, and children's podiatry with no minimum age. Her ground-floor clinic at Sabel Chemist has step-free access and is welcoming for patients of all ages and abilities.
Anna is HCPC registered (CH23500), BUPA Fee Assured, and a member of the Royal College of Podiatry. She accepts card, cash, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and BUPA insurance. Routine appointments Mon–Thu 9am–3pm; Sunday and evening slots by arrangement for emergency nail surgery.
The N2 area is served by several excellent GP surgeries for general health concerns. For specialist podiatry and nail surgery, however, Anna's Hendon clinic is the nearest dedicated option — and at £286 for surgery, significantly more affordable than hospital outpatient departments.

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.

"We live just off Lyttelton Road and Anna's clinic is barely 5 minutes away. She treated my husband's ingrown toenail and he was back playing golf within 10 days. We've since recommended her to half the street."
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.
You can reach Anna's clinic at 116 Brent Street, Hendon NW4 2DT by several routes. Drive via A1/Lyttelton Road — approx. 5–8 minutes to Brent Street. East Finchley station (Northern line) — 4 stops to Hendon Central, then 5 min walk. Bus 102 from East Finchley towards Golders Green, alight at Brent Street. On-street parking available on Brent Street, NW4 2DT. The clinic is on the ground floor with step-free access.
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.
Very close — probably Anna's nearest catchment area apart from Hendon itself. Drive via the A1 or Lyttelton Road and you're there in 5-8 minutes. On-street parking on Brent Street is free.
For many patients, yes. Hospital outpatient podiatry involves long waiting lists and often higher costs. Anna can typically see you within a few days, charges £286 all-inclusive for nail surgery, and you deal with the same person throughout. No referral needed.
