The Foot & Lower Limb Clinic LLP

As someone who has had chronic foot problems for over 20 years despite following the advice of several podiatrists, I was resigned that I would simply have to live with recurring foot pain, intense muscle tightness and fatigue. I genuinely had lost faith in the podiatry knowledge that was out there. In spite of this at the start of 2022 I tried once again to seek some other knowledge and decided to try The Foot and Lower Limb Clinic because they offered both digital gait analysis and importantly provided clinical biomechanic expertise. In my intial assessment, Dee identified issues not just with my feet that I wasn't aware of but also with some of my leg muscle groups. In fairness I thought if any solution was to be found it would come through appropriate custom orthotics. Dee explained in detail how orthotics were only a part and that strengthening what were under-performing muscle groups would be key. Since then I have had several appointments over the last twelve months where Dee has corrected/perfected a pair of previous orthotic insoles, trained me to develop strenghtening exercises, provided shockwave treatment which has broken down scar tissues from years of inflammation, pointed me in the direction of rocker bottom shoes which have helped immensely and given me hope that my feet can be better than what I had accepted them to be. Dee's knowledge, expertise and experience in clinical biomechanics - how feet affect legs and vice versa has made the difference for me. Thankyou Dee

I had serious problems with my calves which was affecting affecting my distance running, Dee identified the problems quickly, utilised acupuncture and shockwave to remove trigger points. Then through a great training program helped me gain strength in my weak areas and improved my gait. I have recently ran 17 miles with no issues. 5 star

Excellent. Fresh, clean and high tech facilities. Dee is professional, friendly and genuinely interested in helping. I'll be back. Definitely recommend 👌 👍

I sent in an enquiry on a Sunday, not expecting to hear anything back until at least the following Monday; I was pleasantly surprised to be contacted a short while later with an appointment the following weekend! Madiha was friendly and welcoming. As well as completely sorting out the issue I had originally booked the appointment for, she also did the rest of my feet too, leaving them feeling better than ever! Highly recommend.

I attended the clinic this morning after seeing 3 other different podiatrists in the last 18 months and what a difference. All the others did was basically cut my toenails. With Dee Smith there was initially 3 different tests re blood flow/ sensitivity & feeling for the feet before anything else. Dee was very welcoming, relaxed and pleasant whilst being knowledgeable, sensitive and professional during my visit. She also gave valuable advice re current and future treatment and I will definitely be returning! Thank you Dee from Phil Pollard.
