Whether you need regular nail trimming, callus removal, or a thorough foot health assessment, routine podiatry keeps your feet comfortable and healthy. Anna Green provides professional chiropody and podiatric care at her ground-floor clinic in Hendon, conveniently located within Sabel Chemist on Brent Street.
What Is Routine Podiatry?
Routine podiatry — sometimes called chiropody — is preventative and maintenance foot care delivered by a qualified, HCPC-registered professional. It covers everything from straightforward nail cutting to the identification and management of more complex foot conditions.
Many people benefit from regular podiatry: older adults who find it difficult to reach their feet, patients with diabetes who need careful monitoring, people on their feet all day for work, and anyone experiencing discomfort from corns, calluses, or thickened nails. If you have a medical condition affecting circulation or sensation in your feet, professional care is particularly important.
What Does a Routine Appointment Include?
A typical appointment lasts approximately 30 minutes and may include any combination of the following, depending on your needs:
- Toenail trimming and filing — including thickened or difficult nails
- Callus and hard skin removal — painless reduction of built-up skin
- Corn treatment — careful removal of painful corns
- Foot health assessment — checking skin condition, circulation, and sensation
- Diabetic foot screening — structured checks for patients with diabetes
- Footwear advice — recommendations to prevent recurring problems
- Nail care for fungal nails — debridement and thinning of affected nails
When Might You Need Something More?
If you find yourself returning frequently for the same ingrown toenail problem — particularly if it has recurred two or more times — routine podiatry provides relief but not a permanent solution. In these cases, a minor surgical procedure called phenol matrixectomy can permanently resolve the issue.
Anna is a specialist in ingrown toenail surgery and performs the procedure under local anaesthetic at her Hendon clinic. The surgery takes around 45 minutes, you walk out the same day, and the permanent success rate is high.
