Our key differentiators
Clear advice without the jargon
​We explain what we see in simple terms. You leave knowing what needs attention and what to watch at home.
Checks shaped around diabetes risks
We focus on the changes diabetes can cause in skin, nails and sensation. That makes each appointment more relevant to your everyday foot health.
A steady clinic routine that puts you at ease
We take time to examine your feet carefully. You get a calm appointment that feels thorough, not rushed.
Care that helps you stay aware of small changes
We provide diabetic foot care for people living with diabetes, with checks that can help spot concerns before they become harder to manage. Diabetes can affect circulation and sensation in your feet, which means a small cut, a pressure point or a blister may be easier to miss than you think.
Our appointments look closely at your skin, toenails, corns, calluses and any areas under pressure while also giving you time to talk through pain or changes in feeling. Kettering Foot Health Clinic provides podiatry and chiropody treatments with a calm, practical approach, including toenail surgery where needed. This can include catching rubbing from a shoe before it turns into broken skin or noticing thickened nails that are making walking less comfortable. Regular attention to your feet can make everyday movement feel safer and more manageable.
What we look at during your appointment
Your visit starts with a review of your medical history and foot health, because diabetes care makes more sense when we understand the full picture. We then carefully examine your skin and toenails, looking for dryness, changes in colour, thickening, or signs that an area is under too much pressure.
If you've noticed numbness, tenderness or a change in sensation, we'll discuss it clearly and explain why it matters. Our advice is practical rather than fussy, covering things like washing and drying your feet properly, checking inside your shoes and avoiding barefoot walking. We make sure you leave Kettering Foot Health Clinic knowing what to watch for between visits.
