Livewell Southwest's podiatry service helps to diagnose and treat a wide range of foot and lower limb-related health problems affecting people living in parts of the southwest.
We offer specialist assessments and interventions for people who are experiencing pain or mobility issues caused by problems with their feet or lower legs. The majority of Livewell Southwest's podiatry services are delivered in community-based health clinics, delivering the treatment people need closer to them. Home visits can be arranged for people with serious mobility problems who are unable to travel to community clinics. Referrals to the service are typically made by a healthcare professional, such as a GP, nurse, or physiotherapist.
Livewell Southwest's podiatrists and chiropodists are fully trained and regulated by the Health Professions Council, evidencing that they meet the high standards of skill, professionalism, and behaviour required by those professions. Only Health Professions Council-registered podiatrists are able to work for the NHS.
