Your First Visit to Cheshire Foot Clinic

Welcome to Cheshire Foot Clinic

Welcome to Cheshire Foot Clinic, where expert podiatric care meets a friendly and professional approach. Whether you’re here to address a specific foot or ankle problem or simply looking for preventative care, we’re here to make sure your first visit is a positive and stress-free experience. Below, you’ll find all the important details about what to expect and how to prepare for your initial appointment.

Preparing for Your First Visit

Once you’ve booked your appointment, you’ll receive a welcome form to fill out, along with helpful appointment reminders via text or email. If you have any specific requirements or mobility concerns (e.g., difficulty with stairs), please inform our receptionist when booking so we can best accommodate your needs.

What to Bring

To ensure a smooth consultation, please bring the following items:

  • Any referral letters from a GP or other healthcare professional (if applicable)
  • A list of current medications and medical conditions
  • Any recent test results or imaging related to your foot or leg concerns
  • The three pairs of footwear you use most often (especially for biomechanical assessments)
  • A pair of shorts if you are attending a Biomechanical/Gait Assessment for comprehensive movement evaluation

These items will help our team understand your case and provide the best care possible.

What to Expect During Your Consultation

From the moment you step through our door, our team is dedicated to making your visit comfortable and informative. Upon arrival, check in with our receptionist and take a seat in our welcoming waiting area. Your podiatrist will personally meet you and escort you to the treatment room.

Patient History

Your podiatrist will take the time to understand your main concerns, collect a detailed medical history, and note any medications or allergies. We’ll also discuss your personal goals for treatment—whether it’s reducing pain, improving mobility, or something else entirely.

Physical Examination

This involves carefully examining your feet, ankles, and potentially your knees and hips (if biomechanics are a factor). Our diagnostics may include skin, nail, and foot structure assessments and vascular and neurological checks to gauge blood flow and nerve health.

Diagnostics & Treatment Options

Once the assessment is complete, your podiatrist will provide a clear diagnosis or overview of potential causes (“differential diagnosis”) of your issue. We’ll walk you through your treatment options, answer any questions, and begin addressing immediate concerns—for example, treating corns, calluses, or ingrown toenails on the same day when possible.

Personalised Treatment Plan

Finally, we’ll create a tailored treatment plan for you to take home. This written plan summarises our advice, treatment options, and any follow-up steps. Your podiatrist will then escort you back to the reception desk.

Patients dealing with long-term pain (over six weeks) in the foot, ankle, or leg are encouraged to book a Biomechanical Assessment to better analyse movement patterns and identify the underlying causes of discomfort.
