Nigel graduated from The London Foot Hospital & School of Podiatric Medicine in 1993, after spending two years working on the NHS he set up in private practice. He is HPC registered and a member of The Society of Chiropodists & Podiatrists Nigel has a special interest in biomechanics as well as the surgical management of foot and ankle problems.
Did you know that if you are considered overweight or obese, studies have shown that you are more likely to suffer from foot problems such as - Tendinitis- Type 2 Diabetes (which can induce foot problems)- Nail problems - Stress fractures As. Having smelly feet can be a pretty embarrassing problem to have, and getting rid of it may not be as hard as you think.
Plantar fasciitis is a very painful condition where your heel may hurt, feel hot or swell. The pain is a result of inflammation or microscopic tears of the plantar fascia. The fascia is a thin layer of tough tissue supporting the arch of the foot. Often when someone has plantar fasciitis, the pain is at its most intense when you first get out of bed.
Are you suffering from painful verruca's that just won't leave? Have you tried lots of over the counter treatments that promised "verruca free skin" but were rewarded with little or no results and has just left you even more disappointed than before? If you've answered yes to any of the above questions, then keep on reading.
Surgery may be recommended in cases where an ingrown toenail is more severe. This may involve either removing a section of the affected toenail or removing the whole nail. Nail surgery is the treatment of choice for recurrent ingrown toenails or toenails that are too painful to treat without the use of local analgesia.

Nigel is Incredible!! I took in my just turned 4 year old daughter to see him. She had been suffering with such a painful verruca for 8/9 months and Nigel was brilliant. He gave me a free consultation over the phone and made me aware of what he was going to do. My daughter was terrified of anyone going near her foot and Nigel spent some time playing with her, calming her down and gaining her trust and was so helpful. He was very informative and has been so patient with her. 2 sessions later it was gone and I can’t thank him enough!!

I walked into Nigel's Podiatry Practice with a foot problem I didn't know how to manage.
I had an unexplained tiny dark brown spot on my left foot, causing me pain when stepping on it, and sometimes even at rest, with no pressure.
Two doctors told me it was a foreign body that would remove itself naturally, when initially it wasn't causing me pain.
Though when it started to cause me trouble and play up, I had to do something.
Nigel patiently listened to me as I explained the problem, from the onset to the present time and did a thorough examination too.
He provided me with a detailed diagnosis

I have been going to Nigel for a very long time and it just struck me today after my appointment that I have never left a review. Nigel is unfailingly polite and caring. He will go the extra mile to make one feel relaxed and confident. I know that my feet are in very good hands at The Podiatry Centre.

My daughter saw Nigel for a persistent verucca which I had tried to treat at home with no success. My daughter has anxiety issues and was absolutely petrified going to see him. Nigel put her at ease and decided the lease painful method was best for her. We had 3 further visits but the verucca has now gone. Thank you Nigel for your care and consideration in treating my daughter.

I went to Nigel with a very painful toe. He saw me within an hour of the phone call. He went through all my options very clearly and unfortunately removal of part of the toenail was necessary. Within 45 of entering the clinic, I'd had the local anaesthetic, the nail was removed, toe bandaged and I was on my way. He is very professional and very reassuring. Unfortunately I am going back to have a problem on the other foot looked at now! I have full confidence Nigel will sort it out for me. My husband is also booking an appointment for his toe. Thanks Nigel, super service.

Nigel has seriously changed my life. I suffered a bad ligament and tendon knee injury back in 2004 and was unable to walk for 4 months. A podiatrist prescribed orthotics which I was told had to be worn all the time. I was also told by her that I had one leg longer than the other. I struggled around for 12 years in these getting more and more bent and in pain with my back, knees and feet but was told by the podiatrist every 4 months that the orthotics were correct for me. Back in August I decided to see Nigel. He was shocked and told me I had normal flat feet, good feet and my legs were the same
