Some clarification regarding home visits

I’ve had a few questions about why my home visit fee is now £55 so I just wanted to clear this up.

A routine treatment in my clinic is £45. A home visit is £55 so there is a £10 additional charge for me to travel to you bring all of my equipment and provide the treatment in your own home.

As I’ve mentioned before home visits have also started to take a toll on my back and neck due to carrying heavy equipment and treating in environments that aren’t always ideal for me to work in.

This is a big reason why I’ve invested in opening my own clinic. I now have a purpose-built space where I can treat patients safely and comfortably, so if you are physically able to attend the clinic, I would really appreciate you doing so.

I will still provide home visits for patients who genuinely need them, particularly those who are housebound, but these will be charged at £55.

I don’t particularly like having to justify my pricing, as ultimately I have to make decisions that are right for both my health and my business but I wanted to make the difference clear for anyone who has asked.

Clinic professional nail cut - £35
Clinic routine treatment — £45
Home visit — £55

Thank you for understanding.

BACK TO SCHOOL 👟📚

Back to school means new school shoes for a lot of little feet.

They’re going to be wearing them for hours every day so it’s definitely worth making sure they fit properly. A few things to look out for:

👟 A little bit of growing room at the toes (around a thumbnail’s length).

👟 Make sure they’re the right width as well as length (getting both feet measured is always a good idea).

👟 Laces, Velcro or a buckle are best to keep the foot nice and secure.

👟 The sole should bend around the toes rather than folding through the middle.

👟 Check they’re not slipping at the heel when walking.

👟 Try not to go too big just so they’ll “grow into them” as they still need to fit securely now.

And remember to keep checking them! Children’s feet grow quickly with the Royal College of Podiatry recommending checking the fit around every 8 weeks. If they’re complaining about sore feet or toes or you notice rubbing or blisters it might be time to check them over.

Another exciting step for AB Podiatry. Following a meeting today, I’m really pleased to be joining Cedar Grove Wellbeing Centre in Wallsend as their podiatrist.

I’m looking forward to meeting everyone who attends the centre and working alongside the staff and wider multidisciplinary team to provide professional podiatric care and help support the health, mobility and wellbeing of those accessing the service.

Looking forward to getting started following their £40,000 refurbishment next month. ☺️

NEW FLYER. NEW PREMISES. NEW PRICELIST. SAME PODIATRIST. ✨

There will be changes to my prices from September. I’ve kept my prices low for a considerable amount of time and the new prices reflect the time and commitment that goes into providing my services.

For home visits the additional cost reflects the extra time involved with travelling and being away from the clinic.

I’ve kept the changes as fair as possible and I’m really looking forward to this next chapter for AB Podiatry. 🤎

Bookings open for CLINIC appointments.

Thank you as always for your support. 👣

📞 NEW CONTACT NUMBER

📱 07399 168530
📧 [email protected]

I’d really appreciate it if everyone could use this number going forward rather than my old one just so I can keep work and home life a little more separate! 🤎

My business contact hours are 9am–5pm Monday to Friday.

As I spend most of my days with patients, I can’t always answer the phone. Text, Facebook Messenger or email is always best where possible and I can usually get back to you much quicker this way.

If you do call and I can’t answer please leave me a voicemail with your name and reason for calling and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. If no voicemail is left, I won’t return the call as I won’t know what it’s regarding.

Thank you so much for understanding and as always for keeping me so busy!

From an empty space to a reception and clinic room it’s really starting to feel like a proper clinic.

Huge thanks to JScott Building Services for their incredible work transforming the space so quickly. I’m so pleased with the progress.

Still plenty to do, but we’re getting there. Can you picture it finished yet? 🫶🏽🥹
