Don't forget your feet

At KCHFT, we know how important it is to look after your feet. With a team of experts available as part of our Podiatry Service, we can provide non-surgical and surgical management for patients with foot and ankle problems in our ​consultant-led Podiatric Surgery Service.

If you have a foot problem that could need a surgical opinion and correction, speak to your GP or healthcare professional to get a referral to the Podiatric Surgery Team. Each treatment offered is tailored to the specific needs of the patient and encourage them to take an active role in their treatment.

Most often, the problems faced by our patients relate to the foot or ankle, the Podiatric Surgery Team works to find surgical or non-surgical solutions to these problems, working closely with specialty services, including podiatry bio-mechanics and physiotherapy.

If you have a concern that you think can benefit from a referral to the Podiatric Surgery Team, please speak to your GP or healthcare professional. We cover most areas of Kent, including Ashford, Canterbury, south Kent, Thanet and west Kent.
