Who we help
Foot and ankle care for everyday pain, not just sport
Living with foot or ankle pain
Arthritis, a bunion, plantar fasciitis or ongoing pain making daily life harder. You do not need to be sporty to see us — we treat patients of all ages and activity levels.
Back to the things you enjoy
A sports injury, an unstable ankle or a tendon problem holding you back from walking, running or training. We set a realistic plan to get you moving again.
Pain that builds through the day
Long shifts and time on hard floors can make a foot problem steadily worse. We look at what is driving it and what will actually help, surgery or not.
Seen elsewhere and still unsure
If you have had advice that does not sit right, or want another view before deciding, both surgeons can review your case together.
A genuine partnership
One surgeon owns your care. A second is always behind it.
A genuine partnership, not two solo practices sharing a name.
01
You choose your surgeon and stay with them through diagnosis, surgery and recovery.
02
Complex cases are reviewed by both surgeons together: two specialists and one plan.
03
If your surgeon is in theatre or away, the other can step in, so you are never waiting on one diary.
Between them, our surgeons hold national leadership roles in UK foot and ankle surgery.
Not sure what’s wrong?
Tell us where it hurts and we’ll point you to the likely cause and the right next step. It informs, it does not diagnose.

You see one of our two consultant foot and ankle surgeons and stay with them. Complex cases are reviewed by both together.
No. Many foot and ankle problems are managed without an operation. We start with the conservative options and only recommend surgery when it is the right step for you.
