Review from a client…
“I have been seeing Patti for 18 months or so; she is amazing, really kind, caring and professional with a wicked sense of humour! From my first session, she was warm, professional, reassuring, and put me completely at ease.
She took the time to thoroughly assess my feet, clearly explained the issue and treatment options and provided effective personalised care. After just one session, I noticed a big improvement, and my feet have continued to feel better since. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Patti to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate podiatrist”. – Sarah
