"Appreciative of help and advice"

About: Borders General Hospital / Podiatry

(as a service user),

I was referred to the podiatrist at the BGH by my local GP. I had previously had a similar problem with my left foot and was very impressed with the help and treatment I received and glad to say this problem no longer troubles me. 

I presumed it was the same problem with my right foot but after being examined by Nicola she diagnosed that it was not a foot problem but a lower back problem. She recommended physio for my lower back and have now had two appointments with a physiotherapist and I am glad to say that there is an improvement already and treatment is ongoing.

I really appreciate the help and advice I received from Nicola.
