PODIATRY / CHIROPODY APPOINTMENTS DURING CORONAVIRUS
OPEN
We have had news from our governing body.
Due to the change in government guidelines and updated guidelines from our governing body we are able to begin the process of reopening.
From next week we will be open to treat patients. Patients need to book these appointments over the phone (02825654625)
Unfortunately we will not be able to see every condition straightaway, due to restrictions that remain in place (most patients will fall into categories to be treated) so we will still need to telephone triage every patient before arrival.
Please be sure to telephone us for an appointment! As walk in’s are not available due to limited clinical work days/hours. We have suspended online booking at present.
We would still advise shielded patients
To remain at home and only
Phone for appointments for emergencies such as pain and infection.
All podiatrists will be wearing full PPE in line with government guidelines and we have implemented the following to protect staff and patients;
We advise all patients to wear an appropriate face mask or covering if possible. As per governments guidelines if unable to maintain the 2 metre distance rule.
All patients should wait outside the clinic until their allocated time slot, to maintain social distancing.
On entering and exiting the clinic all patients MUST use the hand sanitizer provided.
All patients are asked to come alone to their appointment unless a legal guardian or carer is required.
Unfortunately the cost of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and medical supplies has increased due to the surge in demand in these unprecedented times and this will have an impact on our fees. I’m sure this can be appreciated.
In these ever changing times we thank you for your continued support.
