People told me not to quit my full-time job in my 20s… but I chose to trust myself and I am so pleased I did 🥹

From life in my NHS scrubs to moments in Dubai, the Maldives, and everywhere in between 🫶🏼

Don’t get me wrong, there has been highs and lows but overall I wouldn’t change it for the world and sometimes taking the risk is what leads you to where you’re meant to be 🌍🥰

👣 Before & After Corn Removal
Swipe to see the transformation!

This patient had been struggling with a painful corn for months. After trying over-the-counter corn plasters with no success, she came in for professional help and left the clinic pain free and walking comfortably again🙌🏼

🔍 Why corn plasters can be a problem:
Corn plasters contain acidic ingredients designed to dissolve hard skin. The issue? They can’t tell the difference between the corn and the healthy skin around it. This often leads to:
• Skin irritation or burns
• Increased pain
• Infection risk
• The corn getting worse, not better
and for diabetics this can be really dangerous!!!

✔️ A qualified podiatrist can remove the corn safely, assess the cause, and help prevent it returning

✨If you’re struggling with persistent corns, skip the risky plasters and get proper advice and treatment✨

👣 Ever wondered about ingrown toenail surgery ? Then listen up….

Ever wondered what really happens during an ingrown toenail procedure? 👇

In this video I am performing a total nail avulsion under local anaesthetic which is an effective treatment for a severely ingrown or infected toenails 🙌🏼

✅ The toe is completely numb before we start using local anaesthetic
✅ The problematic nail is carefully removed in one piece (either part of or the full nail)
✅ A chemical (phenol) may be applied to prevent regrowth if needed
✅ The area is dressed to promote healing and reduce infection risk

This quick, pain-free procedure can bring instant relief and help patients walk comfortably again 🥰😍

👣 Always seek treatment from a registered podiatrist if you’re struggling with persistent or painful ingrown toenails
