Foot and Ankle Surgery

Foot and ankle surgery is a sub-specialty of Podiatry that deals with the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of disorders of the foot and ankle.

Our highly qualified and experienced Podiatrists routinely perform minor soft tissue surgical procedures such as removal of in-grown toenails and skin lesions, including treatment of verruca/plantar warts. These procedures are performed in-clinic using local anaesthetic, and are usually painless.
