**I'm often told my treatment is painless, but all I can guarantee is I will be as gentle, yet effective, as possible in order to remove the spike of nail causing the problem.  A topical anaesthetic can be applied (no charge) if you prefer.

For follow-up appointments, all additional devices (e.g. Bland-Rose toe props, removable felt props, animal wool, heel pads) and some medicaments (e.g. silver nitrate, local anaesthetic) will be chargeable. 

​

Please note, if something is still not quite right; a short follow-up treatment may offered free of charge - please get in touch. I intend to offer the best treatment & management available.
