HOME VISIT PODIATRY SERVICE in Newcastle & Lake Macquarie
If getting to a clinic is difficult, our podiatrists can come to you. We bring everything we need, so you can stay comfortable in your own chair while we look after your feet. Our home visit service is designed for older adults, people living with a disability, and anyone who finds travel hard because of mobility, health or transport.
What we can do at home
- Toenail cutting and care, including thick or difficult nails
- Corns and callus treatment
- Diabetes foot checks
- Assessment of foot pain
- Medical grade footwear: assessment and referral when standard shoes no longer fit, support or protect your feet
- Ongoing routine foot care, booked at regular intervals
If you need something we can't safely do at home, such as nail surgery or orthotics, we'll arrange for you to see us at our Gateshead clinic.
