Where is the 1st foot podiatry clinic located?
The clinic is located in a small business centre in Gateside Village, next to Barrhead. You can also find us on Google Maps.
Do I need a referral?
No, you do not need a referral however, we will accept a referral from any other health care provider on your behalf.
How do I book an appointment?
You can book via our website or by calling us directly on our clinic number 07359791540. Online appointments can be booked (pending availability).
Do you offer same-day or urgent appointments?
Yes we do on business days. However, we would strongly encourage you to consider attending A&E if you suspect you have an infection and you are feeling systemically unwell.
Do you accept insurance?
We do not get involved directly with your insurer but we can provide you with a receipt to help you to claim back any money you are entitled to.
Can you remove nail varnish / gel?
We do not provide a nail varnish or gel removal service. Nail treatments cannot be carried out if your nails are painted as this prevents us from assessing the health of your nails. Nail Varnish and gel polish also spoils our instruments. If you still require nails to be cut without a detailed assessment, we can use single use nippers which will incur an additional £5 fee to cover the cost of the nippers.
Where can I park?
There is space directly in front of the clinic where you can park.
What is your cancellation policy?
Is the access mobility friendly?
Yes, there is one small step into the clinic and a small handrail for support.

As a keen walker/hiker/munro bagger I thought I best look after them! John was brilliant, very welcoming and friendly. He explained the process throughout and provided great advice. I felt like I was walking on air when I left. Will definitely be back 😁😁 Thank you! LizPosted on Google Elizabeth McCallionTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Phoned earlier and got appointment at short notice which was very accomodating. Find it hard cutting my toenails so great to get them cut properly and my corn removed. Good service with a smile!Posted on Google Fiona StewartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently went to 1st foot podiatry with an ingrown toenail for nail surgery. I was apprehensive, but John put me at ease straight away and explained the procedure thoroughly. It’s safe to say the procedure was painless and I wish I’d gone sooner! He is a professional and also a really nice guy and I’d highly recommend this clinic to anyone. First class!Posted on Google Nicholas MaindsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 1st Foot Podiatry have been looking after my Mum’s feet for many months now and she is very happy with John’s service. She finds him a very pleasant person to deal with would not hesitate to recommend him!Posted on Google Sharon ForresterTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I arrived at first foot podiatry almost unable to walk on my right foot, by the time I left I wad almost pain free! I had two corns one was removed, the other i had cure-a-corn treatment for. I'd 100% recomend First Foot Podiatry and I'll be back should I need any further foot care.Posted on Google Robin DoullTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After getting my feet looked at by John and getting new insoles for my walking boots I can now walk in the lakes pain free Insoles total game changer. I totally recommend John to go and see if you suffer from feet problems .Posted on Google Katharine McShaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend this service Thoughtful and professional through out appointment at home, all questions answered without hesitation very happy with suggestions on how to manage symptoms of PF and other areas this is affecting myself. Will definitely use this service again. I just wanted to add an update to my last review. I had severe PF for over 2years the pain at times was so severe that walking caused severe anxiety and stress, I took holidays from work not to relax but to get off my feet, I saw John and he told me about bio lab insoles, he examined my feet and scanned them and within a couple of weeks my insoles where here and fitted by John, relief was not immediately but in the course of 6 weeks I noticed I was getting some reduction in the severest of pain, I am now 6 months of using the insoles I am pain free after all the money I spent on special shoes, advice from pharmacy on insoles again a small fortune on these, steroid injections, plantar devices. Over the course of two and a half years I never thought I would enjoy going out for walks, enjoying my holidays again and not being afraid to put my feet into nice shoes. I would thoroughly recommend seeing 1st podiatry before you buy or consult anyone else if you are suffering with PF I cannot thank John enough even after care is just amazing.Posted on Google Sarah BurnsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
