Podiatrists are degree level trained health care professionals who specialise in the lower limb (from the hip down) but predominantly focus on the feet. Some practitioners like to use the title Chiropodist but for the purposes of PodiPedia, we will stick with the title Podiatrist (Pod-eye-ah-trist) and the term Podiatry (Pod-eye-ah-tree).

The price of a Podiatry appointment does vary from place to place. As with many services, being in the Centre of larger cities, particularly London, does command a premium. This may not mean that you are getting a better service, however the overheads for the clinic are probably larger.
