Hello. I'm Sophie from footstart Podiatry

Let's get you back to living your best life, and that starts with your feet

I get it

At some point in our lives, we will all have a foot problem in some way. That’s where I come in and can help be the solution to your problem. Let’s face it, an issue with your feet can make you feel embarrassed, lacking in confidence, frustrated and in pain. Who wouldn’t want a way forward to fix that? I don’t want you to ever feel like you want to hide your feet away, because guess what, I’ve seen it all and cannot be shocked. So let’s get you sorted and on your way to fixing those feet!

I come to you

I am a mobile podiatrist and cover the following areas and everywhere in-between in West Lancashire:

Leyland

Preston

Tarleton

Hesketh Bank

Southport

Longton

Bamber Bridge

Chorley


I also offer visits to people in nursing homes and residential accommodation. Your own surroundings can make you feel more comfortable, private and safe.  If your unsure if I cover your area, just ask!


When

I cover a large area on various days in the week. I am flexible with appointments, and also offer some Saturday availability. A home visit can be a great option if you work from home (you might be on your lunch break), are unable to get out or have family living away who are not able to take you to a clinic if your unable to drive. Appointment times are a guide (some appointments may take longer than others). I try and provide a 30min window for my arrival. I bring all my own professionally sterilised equipment; you don’t need to provide anything whilst I’m there. 


The solution to your foot problems

As a podiatrist, I am trained to assess, diagnose and treat a range of foot issues that really can affect every day life. I know what its like to have foot problems, I've been there and experienced the other side, and it definitely has an impact on what you can or cannot do, but also how you feel.  I'm here to help and can provide you with the best treatment and advice going forward so you can be free of any worries or concerns. If you don’t know what options there are to get sorted, you haven't got any, so get informed to see what is right for you.


  • Appointments are without the need for a GP referral, therefore making it stress free and easy to get booked in and sorted sooner than through the NHS route
  • Choice of appointments including weekends
  • Specialist equipment


Lets have a chat

If you are unsure what to do about your foot problem and want a chat, please pick up the phone and give me a call or send me an email. I can provide specialist advice and recommend what to do going forward. A problem shared is a problem halved.



Worried about a family members feet?

Have you got a relative that you worry is unable to look after their feet and keep them in tip top condition? I offer ongoing footcare to help prevent falls, identify any issues and keep your loved one mobile.

Funny Looking nail?

Have you got a nail that doesn’t look right to you? Are you unsure if its fungal or something else, or is it painful and ingrowing? I can identify what the problem is, and get a solution in place so you can stop the embarrassment and get them feeling and looking better.

Skin problem?

Do you have hard skin patches on your feet that are painful, or something that you can’t identify what it is? Maybe you have dry and cracked heels that you find difficult to keep on top of or verruca’s that you can’t seem to shift? Let me take a look and get the solution in place to your problem.


Thank you for your kind words

I love to hear all the comments from my patients

“...my feet feel amazing...”

I recently had a chiropody treatment with Sophie for the hard skin on my feet, and I must say she was outstanding. I was experiencing significant discomfort, but after the treatment, my feet feel amazing. Sophie is exceptionally knowledgeable and provides a mobile service, which is incredibly convenient. Highly recommended!
