Penicuik has officially gone full “Foot Express” and is now fully booked until the middle of June. If you’re trying to get in there, you’re basically dealing with rush-hour levels of feet.

Peebles is busy as well, but still has some availability if you move quickly.

Keep checking the system. As soon as the three-day reminders go out at the start of the week, appointments shift, cancel, and reappear. That’s when spaces open up — it’s first come, first served.

Given the number of new patients coming through right now, booking in advance is the safest option.

Penicuik Podiatrist Clinic – Appointment Update

The Penicuik clinic is now open on:

Tuesday

Thursday

Friday

We currently have one appointment slot available this week on Tuesday.

We have recently taken over a second clinic in Peebles and are in the process of merging it with our existing clinic there. This is taking some time behind the scenes, and we appreciate everyone’s patience.

We would also like to welcome our new receptionist, who is working Tuesday and Thursday, helping us improve response times.

We took over the management of Bob Main’s clinic in Peebles on Monday 29th. This is one of several changes happening across our clinics at the moment.

Staffing updates (next ~6 weeks):
Kim and Ying are changing some of the behind-the-scenes work they do, which means their clinic days may be unpredictable. For the next month and a half we may not be able to guarantee who will be in which clinic on specific days.

Appointments:
We’re currently fully booked until around mid-February. If you’re trying to book, please check our online booking daily—appointments do sometimes become available when reminders go out 3 days before.

This applies to both Penicuik and Peebles, although we currently have more availability in Peebles.

Book online:

Existing bookings:
Because of the changing availability and the third clinic we’ve just taken over, we may need to adjust some appointment times/days. If this affects you, we’ll be in touch.

Phones:
We have a new receptionist joining next week, and we expect this will help us answer calls more quickly. We’re also making updates to the phone system in the background—there’ll be a separate post once everything is finalised.
