Follow up core routine care
The routine follow-up appointment is an essential part of maintaining your foot health. If you’ve already had your initial consultation, this appointment is designed to continue your care by addressing any ongoing or new concerns. Whether it’s routine nail care, skin treatment, or monitoring your overall foot health, we’re here to ensure you stay on the path to optimal well-being.
What to expect during your follow up appointment?
During your follow-up appointment, our focus is on continuity of care and ensuring your treatment plan remains effective. We begin by reviewing your progress since your last visit, discussing any changes in your symptoms or new concerns that may have arisen. This step allows us to tailor your care to your current needs, ensuring that your treatment plan evolves with you.
Our podiatrist will perform any necessary treatments during this appointment. This may include nail care, callus removal, or management of skin conditions. We prioritise your comfort and aim to provide the best possible outcomes with each visit.
If needed, we’ll adjust your care plan based on how you’ve responded to previous treatments. This might involve recommending new products, exercises, or therapies to keep your feet healthy and pain-free.

How often should I schedule a follow up appointment?
The frequency of follow-up appointments depends on your specific condition and treatment plan. Typically, we recommend scheduling routine follow-ups every 6 to 12 weeks, but this may vary based on your individual needs.
What if I have a new concern between appointments?
If you experience any new issues or changes in your condition between scheduled follow-ups, please contact us. We can either address the concern during your next appointment or, if necessary, arrange for an earlier visit.
Will my follow-up appointment include a full assessment?
While the follow-up focuses on ongoing care, it includes a review of your progress and any necessary treatments. If a new issue requires a more comprehensive assessment, we will take the appropriate time to evaluate and address it.
Can I combine routine care with other treatments during the follow up?
Yes, if you require additional treatments beyond routine care, we can often incorporate them into your follow-up appointment. Please let us know in advance so we can allocate sufficient time for your visit.
Is follow up care necessary if I’m not experiencing any problems?
Yes, regular follow-ups are crucial for maintaining your foot health and preventing potential issues from developing. Even if you’re not experiencing problems, routine care helps ensure your feet remain healthy and strong.
What should I bring to my follow up appointment?
Please bring any new medications or updates to your medical history. If you’ve been using orthotics or other products since your last visit, bring them along so we can assess their effectiveness.
