Wound care
Foot wounds require prompt, specialized care—especially in individuals with diabetes, vascular disease, or reduced mobility. Chiropodists are trained to assess and manage foot ulcers, pressure injuries, and slow-healing wounds using evidence-based treatment techniques. Our wound care services include sharp debridement, infection control, advanced dressings, pressure offloading, and ongoing monitoring to support healing and prevent complications.
