Podiatry

Learn more about podiatry.

Podiatrists deal with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of medical and surgical conditions of the feet and lower limbs.  Conditions treated include those resulting from bone and joint disorders, soft-tissue and muscular pathologies as well as neurological and circulatory disease. Podiatrists are also able to diagnose and treat any complications which affect the lower limb and play an important role in maintaining mobility.
