Bushey Foot Clinic

Bushey Foot Clinic is for patients with foot and toenail problems, including dry skin, corns, callus, cracked heels, difficult nail cutting, athlete’s foot, verrucae, fungal nails and ingrown toenails. The clinic provides chiropody and podiatry care in Bushey, with treatment and advice for common foot conditions and general footcare.

Chiropody and podiatry appointments cover nail cutting, hard skin removal, corn treatment, cracked heel care and advice on preventing recurrence where this is part of the treatment. For athlete’s foot, the clinic gives advice on management. Its ingrown toenail care includes routine removal of the piece of nail growing in, packing and dressing, and advice on preventing further problems.

For infected ingrown toenails, Bushey Foot Clinic offers minor surgery under local anaesthesia. The clinic also states that it can administer antibiotics where an ingrown toenail appears infected, while noting that antibiotics treat infection rather than the ingrown toenail itself.

Toenail reconstruction is available using Wilde Pedique gel coating for diseased or damaged nails. Fungal nail treatment is also offered using laser therapy, described by the clinic as an alternative to topical medication and oral medicines. Verruca treatment is provided for verrucae described by the clinic as painful or unsightly.

For foot mechanics and related pain, the clinic offers orthotics and biomechanics care, including custom-made insoles intended to help restore foot alignment and reduce pressure linked with foot, knee and lower back pain. Shockwave Therapy, also called ESWT, is available for heel or ankle pain associated with plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis.
