5 Star Reviews What Others Say

Don’t take just our word for it! Below are just a few of the great reviews we have had from people who have received treatment at our clinic.

I had an initial consultation with Alastair after a long period of struggling with long distance walking. The team at the clinic made me feel extremely welcome and Alastair conducted an in depth bio-mechanical assessment into the way I walked and was able to highlight some important points. I am now much more comfortable in walking longer distances and I would highly recommend The Foot and Gait Clinic.

Due to relocation from 'The North' I had to find a new chiropodist. I even managed to get an appointment within a week. Excellent, efficient, friendly service. Easy parking. New, clean premises. Highly recommended.

Brilliant customer service, lovely people, perfectly socially distanced.

Good access to car park and well laid out building for its purpose . I was lucky to get a cancellation to be seen on the day I phoned. I was checked over, and my gait videoed to show my weaknesses. I was shown how to do some exercises to improve my aches in my feet and legs. Being a big 71 yr old farmer I am teaching myself how I should walk properly again without wellies!!! Not like a Penguin?? I now must do my (homework) exercises before we see any improvement for my next appointment. Will Vigus Taunton Outback.

"I came to The Foot and Gait Clinic about my instability in walking and a very painful hip. The pain was even making it difficult to garden. I had a combination of treatments for orthotics, improving my gait and stability, and rehab therapy, increasing the strength in my muscles around my hip. I am still doing my exercises but my stability and strength has greatly improved. I am now no longer experiencing pain and can garden at ease”
