The Chiropody Department is a high risk foot clinic with the majority of clients experiencing diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, with the potential for skin breakdown to the feet. Mobility issues and arthritis can also make it difficult for clients to care for their feet. Education is the key to avoid foot injuries.
