This month, Wokingham business The Vale Clinic celebrated its first anniversary. It opened its doors at its town centre home in Elms Walk a year ago.
The clinic celebrated with an open event, featuring cupcakes and a chance to chat with the staff.
Patients old and new popped by to catch up with the team and to help them celebrate the momentous first year in business.
The purpose built clinic was opened in 2021 by clinical director, podiatrist Ronke Tinker.
“It’s been a fantastic first year for the clinic,” Ronke says. “Businesses and the people of Wokingham have welcomed us and it’s been a real privilege to know that we have been providing high quality lower limb care to the area.”
The clinic has been so busy that it has seen a rapid expansion in their staffing since opening.
The Vale Clinic has hired an additional two podiatrists and a foot health practitioner to assist with the growing demand.
“Podiatry is a specialist branch of healthcare dealing with a multitude of issues in the foot and lower limb,” Ronke explains.
“We see a wide range of issues in the clinic, from assistance with foot care maintenance with both our HCPC registered podiatrists and our foot health practitioner, to our podiatrist’s advanced diagnostic skills being used to deal with vascular issues and problems arising from conditions such as diabetes and arthritis.
“The podiatrists regularly carry out minor surgery to alleviate issues caused by conditions such as ingrown toenails too.”
No foot problem is too big or too small for the team at The Vale Clinic.
“Whether you are worried about the appearance of your feet, a fungal infection or verruca that just won’t shift, or you have underlying health conditions that affect your feet, their range of services has something that can help,” Ronke says.
2022 sees the treatments at The Vale Clinic expanded.
“Based on feedback from our patients, we are delighted to launch an expanded range of therapeutic and aesthetic treatments.
“Our warm wax foot therapy and medical pedicures, will rejuvenate neglected feet, while our reflexology service will help restore calm and balance.”
If you have a concern about your feet then the expert team at The Vale Clinic say they can help.
