What is Podiatry?
Podiatry is an essential allied health field that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of issues related to the feet, ankles, and lower limbs. Foot doctors, also known as podiatrists, are knowledgeable healthcare experts who use a variety of methods, from medical to surgical and rehabilitative approaches, to treat foot and ankle problems.
Podiatrists cater to patients of all ages, from children to the elderly, who suffer from various medical conditions such as diabetes, sports injuries, and arthritis. They play an important role in promoting their patients’ mobility, independence, and overall well-being. Through providing customised care, advice, and treatment, podiatrists can prevent the development of further complications and improve their patients’ overall health and quality of life.
