Anchor 2 Fungal Nail Fenestration ( The Lacuna Method ) £75 Initial Consultation Book Now Fungal Nail Fenestration ( The Lacuna Method) Up to 60% of the population suffer to some degree with Onychomycosis or more commonly known as Fungal Nail Infection.Consulting with a Podiatrist and proactively engaging in a course of treatment can clinically cure fungal nail infection. Up to 60% of the population suffer to some degree with Onychomycosis or more commonly known as Fungal Nail Infection. Clinical evidence now shows that consulting with a Podiatrist and proactively engaging in a course of treatment can clinically cure fungal nail infection. How Can Deva Podiatry Foot Health Clinic Help You? A consultation appointment is booked an optional in clinic diagnostic test is carried out. This will test for the presence of dermatophyte fungal infection. If the test positively identifies Onychomycosis you will be advised on your suitability for a course of treatment. The cost of this initial session is £75 and £55 for the optional test.Further sessions are charged at £55 per session. Course of Treatment An initial treatment plan consists of 4 appointments spaced out over a four to six month period at intervals of 4 to 6 weeks. The growth rate of a nail in recovery is around 1-2mm a month. Changes in the condition of treated nails can be identified and recorded at each of the sessions. The Treatment The condition of all nails is recorded and charted. Photographs of affected nails are taken. This enables us to record progress at each stage of the treatment. The level of onychomycosis in the nail is determined by using a formula called the Onychomycosis Index. We are then able to develop your treatment plan. The Procedure Following examination and identification of the nails to be treated, the procedure will commence. Your podiatrist will drill into the affected nail with a series of micro surgical drills. This procedure is carried out without the need for anaesthetic. The micro holes created give a superb opportunity for the nail bed to be treated directly by sandwiching the active ingredient Terbinafine between the nail and the nail bed allowing direct penetration of the area infected with the fungus. The number of holes drilled is dependent on the area of nail affected and can vary from 3 to 5 holes surrounding an “island” of fungus in the middle of a satisfactory nail to as many as 25 holes in a nail which is severely affected by fungal nail infection. The next stage is to hygienically extract the dust from the surface of the nail, before spraying the nail with Terbinafine. Terbinafine in spray form has proven successful in clearing the source of the fungal nail infection from the nail bed. The procedure is then repeated for the remaining treatments on the course. Deva Podiatry Foot Health Clinic have managed numerous fungal nail fenestration treatments to patient satisfaction. We are happy to publish our pricing structure for the process.

Podiatrist Managed Verrucae Treatment (Various Methods) £75 Initial Consultation. Prices vary depending on treatment method. Contact Us Seeking Professional Help for Verrucae Whilst verrucae may disappear on their own, they can quickly become troublesome, spreading to other areas of your feet, growing larger, and often becoming painful. Seeking professional help from a podiatrist can help you clear up your verrucae more quickly. We recommend visiting us here at Deva Podiatry if your verruca is painful, has spread, multiplied, altered in appearance, or if it’s restricting you in your daily activities. Causes Of Verrucae Verrucae are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV), a highly contagious virus. The virus thrives in moist, damp environments, such as changing room floors, swimming pools and communal showers. You can catch the virus simply by walking on the same floor as an infected person, which is why it’s so common amongst children and people who regularly attend swimming pools and gyms. Verrutop Verrucae Treatment We are delighted to introduce Verrutop to the clinic. An EU approved treatment that is suitable for treatment of adults and children of 6 years of age and over. Visit the dedicated pages that explain the treatment in detail by clicking here Acid Treatment Clinical acid treatments are much stronger than the branded products you buy from a pharmacy. They are used to disrupt the virus and cause inflammation provoking your body to make an immune response. This type of treatment usually requires several sessions. The procedure itself is painless, however some people feel a little discomfort 2 to 3 days later when the acid starts to work. Verrucae Needling Verruca needling is a minor surgical procedure that’s carried out under local anaesthetic. It involves puncturing the verruca multiple times using a fine, sterile needle. This treatment pushes the virus into the dermis allowing the body’s immune system to recognise and destroy the virus. An advantage of Verruca needling is that it usually only requires a single treatment. I n a small percentage of cases a further treatment may be required. We can not guarantee that every verrucae treatment will be 100% successful, but we can guarantee that we will be honest in offering the most suitable treatment for each individual patient, giving you the most up to date information available and discussing different courses of treatment will ensure that you are always fully informed of the processes.

Anchor 1 The Big 10- Podiatry Frequently Asked Questions 1..What is the difference between a Chiropodist and a Podiatrist? There is no difference. A podiatrist is the internationally recognised name for a foot specialist and since the mid 1990’s degree level qualification allows for the recognition of the title Podiatrist. 2..I’m confused! You call yourself a Podiatrist and a Chiropodist and you state you practice Podiatry. So what are you? Don’t worry, many people still like to retain links to the origins of the discipline and for this reason it is very common for us to mix between the two. Think of it as being like money - chiropodist is pre- decimal and podiatrist is decimal. 3..Where can I find your credentials? All registered Podiatrists and Chiropodists are regulated by the HCPC who keep an online register of us. Registration is renewed every 2 years. If you can’t find the name or the registration number, then it’s likely that the person is not a Podiatrist or Chiropodist. 4..What should I expect on my first visit? You will be asked for some personal information, such as your contact details and date of birth. You will also be asked for any necessary information that may be relevant to your treatment i.e. if you have any medical conditions and what medications you take. The podiatrist will then undertake a thorough examination of your feet. Your circulation will be checked and tested using a Doppler machine and your nervous system checked for any loss of protective sensations. Once the full assessment has been completed, we will offer appropriate treatment and advice. 5..Will my personal data be shared with a third party? All personal information supplied during a consultation will be kept secure and not shared with any other third party. An exception would be to share information with your doctor or hospital specialist regarding your foot complaint, but only with your prior permission. Any information such as emails used to contact us are entered into https://www.devapodiatry.com The website privacy policy explains how this data is stored. ZA458556 is our GDPR number at the ICO. 6..How long will my initial treatment take? We believe that an initial appointment is an opportunity to get to know you and understand your concerns relating to your foot health. For this reason, all new patients are allocated up to 60 minutes for this appointment as we conduct a number of thorough tests linked to your general health and the medications you may or may not be taking. 7..How often should I return? The majority of patients realise the benefit of Podiatry / Chiropody treatments are truly gained when visiting on a regular basis of 6-8 weeks. However, some patients need to return more regularly whilst others may find that they only require minimum work once or twice a year, as they follow advice on good foot health maintenance. Here at Deva Podiatry we trust that you will be highly satisfied with your treatment. We will be able advise you in our professional capacity on when to book a further appointment as the period between appointment times can vary according to your individual needs. 8..Does the treatment hurt? In general routine podiatry treatments are pain free and leads to great comfort and reduction of previous pain associated with the foot problem presented. Occasionally some more complex procedures may be a little uncomfortable but you will always be informed if we believe this will be the case. 9..I am nervous about receiving Podiatry treatment. Don’t worry! It’s quite normal to have concerns, at all stages you can stop and tell us if you are feeling nervous or anxious. Remember, it’s your treatment, for you. Patient Feedback tells us that the clinic is an ambient and calming environment to visit and that the podiatrists are friendly and able to put people at ease. 10..Do you offer after care advice?
