Our approach

We treat the cause your foot pain keeps coming back to,not just the spot that hurts.

Walking Lab Podiatry (formerly Hughesdale Foot Clinic) treats the everyday and the stubborn, from sore heels and ingrown toenails to sports injuries that will not settle down. Every plan starts with a proper assessment of gait, footwear and load, because getting the diagnosis right first is what makes the treatment work.

From young children needing specialist care like orthotics, through sports injuries and rehabilitation, to older patients requiring ongoing professional care, we take the time to listen, explain what is going on, and stay involved until it is fixed.

I had not seen a podiatrist in years - not until I had issues with my feet that a physio and GP could not correctly diagnose. My feet are now being correctly treated and the changes in such a small amount of time is significant…

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Custom orthotics are moulded to the shape of your foot and support your specific gait pattern. They redistribute pressure away from painful areas and correct alignment through the foot, ankle and knee, which is why they're prescribed for such a wide range of conditions.
