This service is for people aged 16 yrs + with podiatry problems who are registered with a local GP practice. This self-referral route allows patients to access Podiatry Services quickly, without needing to see a GP or health professional first.
When not to use self-referral:
- Your GP is out of our geographical area
- You have received treatment from the podiatry service for the same condition in the last 6 months
- You require routine nail cutting and skin care (corns and callus) and you don’t have an underlying long-term medical condition
- You require advice for fungal nails or verrucae
- You are looking for a home visit and are not bed bound (we provide a very limited home visit service and would support you to attend one of our clinics)
To self-refer, print out and complete the form below, as fully as you are able.
