See What Our Patients Say
Pippa Rutherford2025-05-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My 11 year old daughter had multiple verrucas. GPs no longer treat these and nothing from the chemist or natural remedies had worked & they were just increasing. She’d had them treated with another podiatrist abroad. That treatment not only didn’t work but had also been traumatic for her so she was extremely nervous going in. Lukes treatment was virtually painless (just one anesthetic injection that lasted 10secs or so and then she was happy watching Netflix while Luke got to work. This is her review: “Luke was really nice and didn’t rush me and reassured me. He told me what was going to happen step by step.” Gabriel Fialho Manochio2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an amazing initial appointment, Lauren was kind and amazed me with her work, I left the clinic already feeling less pain.

Thanks Jane Reddy2025-04-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Luke was extremely thorough and kind with our son with special needs who was put immediately at ease. We have a clear diagnosis and a very detailed plan going forward which will help us resolve the current issue and also help with his mobility in the longer term. Alistair Burt2025-03-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very good appointment. Like too many, I had left assessment and treatment too long. But any apprehension was cleared by a thorough examination, an explanation of what my options were, and what to expect going forward. Written information of treatment options forwarded within an hour. Impressed and happy to recommend. Naomi Berry2025-03-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lauren was helpful, knowledgeable and gave me treatment together with good foot advice. I am very grateful for this service. Scott Barnett2025-03-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started to have pain in my foot about a year ago. Initial diagnosis by my doctor wasn’t leading to any treatment plan. Frustrated, I searched locally and found My foot medic. Through a very thorough process of diagnosis i was given a treatment plan. I cannot thank My foot medic enough for their help in treating me. Sarah J2025-03-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant service provided by My Foot Clinic, from the moment I arrived I felt at complete ease and welcomed by the team who signed me in. Easy check in and a short wait time. I was booked with Lauren who was fantastic and so lovely, she took the time to ensure that all my questions were answered and was so professional and friendly. I felt so comfortable during my appointment and satisfied with the outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Lauren and my Foot Clinic to anyone!

Some questions we asked Luke!
What inspired you to get into this field of work?
I first thought about Podiatry as a career whilst working in a ski boot shop in-between competitive ski racing seasons. This is where I was introduced to custom insoles and the benefits they offered, both for comfort and competitive reasons. Having had many sporting injuries myself, injury rehabilitation was always an area that I was interested in and I loved learning about biomechanics.
How do you keep active?
Running after my child keeps me fairly active!
Outside of this I enjoy cycling, running and skiing when I get the chance.
What do you do outside of work?
I love going on driving holidays with my friends and exploring new areas. I enjoy watching the formula 1, playing pool every week and spending time with my family.
Tell us a fun fact about yourself?
I previously skied for England and did the third largest bungee jump in the world, whilst training in New Zealand.
