One of the most common complaints in podiatry are fungal infections, especially in Scotland where we often have our feet covered – a breeding ground for fungal spores. Whether it’s your skin or your toenails, this is something we can diagnose and provide advice and management plans for.

We can carry out a five-minute fungal toenail test in clinic, or we can provide your GP with a sample of your toenails to confirm/rule out the presence of a fungal infection so that appropriate medical treatment options can be explored. We also offer mechanical reduction of thickened fungal nails to reduce the fungal load, help to improve the aesthetic appearance and allow absorption of topical treatments.
Once diagnosed, we can provide management advice and education surrounding athlete’s foot infection and to prevent future recurrence.
If you suspect you have a fungal infection, don’t ignore it and hope it’ll go away – they will not self-resolve and the quicker you seek treatment, the more successful it will be!

I can't recommend Feet First enough. I was made to feel so comfortable and welcome the minute I met Romy. I had such dry hard skin on my feet that I couldn't get a hold on myself. After 1 appointment my feet are so soft and no more hard skin! Romy is amazing at what she does and is such a lovely person! Highly recommended.

I visited yesterday and was warmly met by Romy. She's friendly, professional and knowledgeable. She sorted out my feet, no discomfort, she made me feel relaxed. Ifyou're thinking of visiting, make that appointment now! Stay Cool and make your feet fit to be seen in public!! 😎

Romy is a miracle worker. I have psoriatic arthritis which badly affects my feet resulting in hard skin buildup in odd places. I arrive feeling every step I take and leave gliding on pillows. My appointments with Romy enable me to maintain my movement. I can’t recommend Romy highly enough xx

Thank you so much, I feel like I have brand new feet, first time I’ve visited and Romy removed all my hard skin and gave me great after care advice, can’t wait to visit again already!

Podiatrists are tertiary educated clinicians, trained to assess, manage and treat conditions affecting the foot and ankle. Our aim is to improve patient mobility, independence and quality of life by using evidence-based treatment and advice.
If you have any issues that involve your foot or ankle, such as a sports injury, ingrown toenail, or problems with your skin, you should contact a podiatrist. A podiatrist is a specialist in the management and treatment of foot and ankle pathologies.
A podiatrist can remove the ingrown portion of the nail, and if ingrown nails are a chronic problem, your podiatrist can carry out a procedure to permanently prevent ingrown toenails.
A podiatrist can usually diagnose the cause of foot pain, offer advice and come up with a treatment plan.
All routine podiatry management is perfectly safe to have whilst pregnant.
I am currently on annual leave to get married! I will return on Monday 26th February, when all enquiries will be responded to.
Thanks for your patience,
Romy
