Location

Foot Wise Podiatry is based in rural south-west Northamptonshire, situated at the centre of Woodford Halse. This is a former railway village situated 12 miles from Banbury and 10 miles from Daventry, leaving the A361 at the two mini roundabouts in Byfield (a map is available on the Finding Us page).

The practice

Foot Wise Podiatry is a private practice chiropody clinic. As such, patients may refer themselves for the available treatments and advice (a GP referral is not necessary).

** NEW FOR OCTOBER 2009 ** We are now able to offer ON-LINE APPOINTMENT BOOKINGS to new and existing clients. First time around, a few registration details are needed and a password is returned to you by email. Therafter you can make appointment reservations on-line at any time, as an alternative to calling our receptionist or leaving a message on our answer machine.

Assessments and treatments

A wide range of foot and lower limb assessments and treatments are available for all ages. For example, gait assessments for youngsters prone to tripping; leg pains and ingrown nails associated with adolescents; muscle strains and verrucae common with the active adult; corns, callus and bunions associated with footwear and poor foot mechanics; also fungal nail treatments for thickened, crumbly, slow growing nails. Corrective, client-specific shoe insoles are manufactured on site. Dermoscopic assessment and photographic monitoring of suspicious moles and other skin lesions are also available.

This is a fee-paying practice, with reductions for those 60+ requiring simple nail or corn treatments. Debit and credit cards, cash and cheques are accepted. Payment is on the day of appointment, or in advance for discounted courses of treatments. Receipts are available for re-claiming costs from health cash plans, such as provided by HSA or BUPA.

There is a charge for missed appointments. There is no charge for changing appointments, if 24 hours notice is given. Appointments can be requested or changed on 01327 260899, with an answering machine for you to leave a message if we are not available. Alternatively, click on the above photo and register your details, then see a list of available appointment slots and choose one that best suits yourself.

Minors below the age of 16 years must always be accompanied by their parent or guardian.

We look forward to being of service to you. We like to have you walking on air!
