HAPPY CLIENTS
“After sufferng with ingrowing toenails and seeing a podiatrist via the NHS I chose to seek help from Nicola privately. It was the best decision I could have made, not only did she rectify the problem quickly and efficiently I felt totally at ease with her, she is friendly, caring and very thorough.
I wouldn't hesitate going back to her and would 100% recommend her services.”
“I' had been suffering from painful a verruca for five years. Nothing would make it go away. I had three sessions of swift microwave therapy and my feet are now verruca free and pain free. ”
T Elliot
“My son used to really struggled to play football with his friends. he was forever falling over his own feet which used to roll into each other. After he saw Nicola, she prescribed him bespoke orthotics and he can now run around with all of his friends without feeling embarrassed about his feet. I'm so glad we went to her as she was so patient with my son and fully understood all my concerns and put my mind at ease .”
