Podiatrist

View this career for different education levels:

Podiatrists are healthcare professionals who specialise in diagnosing and treating problems related to the feet, ankles, and lower limbs. They help patients with a wide range of issues, from ingrown toenails and corns to sports injuries and diabetic foot complications. Podiatrists can work in the NHS, private practice, sports clinics, or even visit care homes and community settings. Their work often involves examining patients, carrying out minor surgical procedures, prescribing orthotics (custom-made shoe inserts), and advising on foot care and rehabilitation. To become a podiatrist in the UK, you need a degree in podiatry approved by the HCPC, and clinical placements are a key part of the training.
