Your 1st Appointment

When you attend your first appointment we will ask you to complete a questionnaire with a variety of personal and medical questions. All the questions we ask are relevant to your treatment and if you have any queries please let us know. We are bound by the Data Protection Act and are registered with the Information Commissioner. (Please refer to the link )

We will ask you about aspects of your medical care such as conditions from which you are suffering, medications you take and operations you may have undergone. We do not ask these to be nosy but to help form a picture of your health and well being which will help us decide what treatments to carry out. If you are not accurate in the answers that you provide we will be unable to give your accurate advice or carry out our treatments correctly.

Should there be any changes in your health, medications or personal details please advise us at your next appointment. We will always endeavour to ask about any changes when you attend.

Consent to Treatment

You will receive a written consent form for you to sign at your first treatment and you may receive additional consent forms should you require any advanced practice treatments such as surgery. Should you wish to withdraw your consent to treatment at any time please let the treating podiatrist know. By signing the consent forms you are stating that you have your own right of consent for medical treatments. Minors (under 16 years old) will require some- one with parental consent to sign their forms and accompany them to treatments.
