CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) update 30 May 2020
Good news, due to Government guidance, we will resume a skeleton service as from 5th JUNE and are able to see all patients.
Although strict protocols have been put in place to reduce the risk of infection to COVID-19, there is always a risk. When you attend the clinic for an appointment, this indicates that you accept this risk.
The clinic is a safe place to visit as we are adhering to strict protocols therefore;
- Please do not visit the clinic if you have any symptoms of a cold, cough or shortness of breath or you/family have symptoms of COVID-19.
- Please do not bring any additional people to your appointment unless you are under 16 or need assistance.
- Please do not turn up early for your appointment, turn up at the allocated time to avoid cross-over of people in reception.
- If you have a mask, please wear it.
- Please sanitise your hands on arrival in reception and wear the gloves/aprons/overshoes provided.
- Please cancel or re-arrange your appointment if it is not required, to ensure we utilise our time efficiently.
What we are doing to minimise the risk;
- thorough cleaning after every patient, including any surfaces patients may touch.
- we are wearing full PPE at all times
- we have allowed for a gap in our diary, to ensure there is NO CROSS-OVER with other patients in reception.
- Entry into the clinic is by appointment only, via an intercom system.
Thank you for your co-operation and support and I look forward to welcoming you back.

HCPC and Society of Chiropodists & Podiatrists
We are registered with the Health Care Professions Council . This is a protected title used by medical professionals only. We continually update our medical knowledge by completing post graduate courses, and are regularly audited to ensure we meet registration requirements. Always check that your podiatrist is registered.
Health Care Providers
Most Health care providers such as Leeds Hospital fund, Simply Health to name a few, will cover the cost of your treatment dependent on your policy. Dee Smith is registered with BUPA but you will need a GP referral and a referral number before you attend your appointment.
We treat the cause of the problem, not only the symptoms. Be proactive and not inactive.
Life Saving Treatment
I was a new patient and happen to mention that I had a calf cramp the night before which was tender. Dee listened to my pulses with a Doppler and assessed my calf. Within 40 minutes I was in A & E as I had a Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) which if left untreated could have killed me! Dee Saved my life thank you.

Severe Foot pain caused by a leg length discrepancy
I cannot stress how brilliant the Foot & Lower limb Clinic is. I had been limping for 6 months, seen physiotherapists and a foot surgeon with not much improvement. As soon as I walked into the clinic, Dee Smith spotted the root cause of the problem, one leg considerably shorter than the other. After 3 treatments, I am no longer limping and can get on with my busy lifestyle. I was impressed by the equipment in the clinic, which enabled me to monitor my progress by seeing actual footage of my gait!

Very Nervous
Previous treatment from another podiatrist left me very nervous to have my ingrowing-toe nails treated and I don’t want nail surgery to remove them. The staff at the clinic have put me at ease and I no longer need regular treatment as the symptoms have subsided considerably.
