Reviews
Jane Randall
“I have a neurological condition and I have orthotics from The Stroud Foot Clinic.
The orthotics have improved my walking and my foot position.
They fit inside my shoes really well. I also use the orthotics in my aqua shoes when I do hydro therapy.. I just dry them off when I have finished and put them back into my outdoor shoes.
Geoff provides an excellent service and I would certainly recommend The Stroud Foot Clinic.”
Michael Garner
“I discovered Geoff Boldero on the internet last year and visited his clinic in Woodchester.
Now he has set up a well equipped modern clinic in Stroud with a welcoming atmosphere, Geoff is very thorough, and the insoles he has made for me have enabled to keep walking for pleasure in the Cotswold hills. Mike.”

Julie Gardner
Highly recommend Stroud Foot Clinic, seen Denise she is very friendly, knowledgeable she got me out of pain and I can’t thank her enough.
Lisa Devine
Geoff is great, he really listens and I’d recommend him any day to anyone.
Jayne Clarke
Went to see Denise today and she has made my feet feel 10 times better. I would highly recommend her.
M Ridge
I would like to put in writing how happy I am with my orthotics. I have worn them every day for six months and they have been remarkable.
After years of low level constant foot pain and several attempts to fix the problem i was under the impression that not a huge amount could be achieved with out surgery. You have proved that significant improvement can be made without resorting to surgery. I run between 20 and 25 miles a week on road and across country and with my orthotics my feet have been pain free. This is simply fantastic.
The durability of the products mean that i can use them in all of my running and work footwear which is a massive bonus.
Sally
I was very pleased with the service and treatment I received from Denise.
I would have no hesitation in recommending the practice.

I went to see Geoff Boldero in late 2018 with harsh pain in my foot (8-9/10 on a pain scale) whilst running (at this point it stopped me running over a mile). I then went to see Geoff, and through Geoff assessing the problem and then us trying a few different orthotic options, we found a solution that has dramatically decreased the pain in my foot and also hips. I now can run 10 miles with little pain (1-2/10 on a pain scale on occasions) in my foot, which I think is probably quite standard when doing longer distances. I went back today to get some more orthotics as I bought some new shoes and the service was brilliant again. Geoff is very professional, honest and knowledgeable and has great patience and understanding when it comes to any issues you have or any questions you ask. I highly recommend Geoff from my experiences I have had with him. J Murray.

Denise was absolutely superb. My two children felt at ease Immediately. I would highly recommend her to others in future and would be happy to see her again.
Anne Wood 2020
I found my session at Stroud Foot Clinic completely easy, efficient, friendly and relaxing. Denise explained all she did, and confirmed my shoes were suitable for my feet. After consulting with her colleague she worked on my toe nail, and gave me cream for me to use.
I can relax knowing my feet are being well looked after now, and I shall certainly return on a regular basis.
It was easy to find, with instructions, and easy to park.
I shall certainly recommend the Stroud Foot Clinic to anyone who asks me.
S Young
I can thoroughly recommend Stroud Foot Clinic. Very professional and a good experience.
Lilly McNab-Jones
Such a friendly and welcoming clinic and really made me feel at ease. Instantly relieved my problems and gave really helpful advise. I will be back soon!
Helen Price
If you have a problem with your foot, please don’t just live with it, do seek help from Stroud Foot Clinic.
I’ve never been to a podiatrist before and had been struggling with my foot for quite a while. My recent experience was excellent. I was made to feel at ease during the booking process and during my appointment which was really thorough. After suffering with pain for quite a few months, the action taken at my appointment resolved things quite quickly. I had no need for a follow up appointment, although one was booked should I have needed it. Many thanks and highly recommend such a welcoming and professional service.
Julie
I thought that the service I received from Stroud foot clinic was outstanding. Despite the fact that there was a waiting list you managed to fit me in and provide fantastic personal centred care even though it was after hours.
I cannot express enough how impressed I was with the care and attention I received. Victoria’s expertise and passion for her job was like a breath of fresh air. I felt confident to share my concerns about my injury and the implications to my training. Victoria reassured me whilst also being mindful of my stubbornness to continue at full speed thus, demonstrating an ability to understand my Physical and psychological needs.
I will definitely be recommending Stroud Foot Clinic in the future.
Thank you
Julie
Louise Eley
I managed to get an appointment really quickly for my dad who hadn’t had his feet treated since before lockdown.
The service he received was wonderful very professional and caring.
My dad said he felt very relaxed and Denise gave his feet the full works.
My dad was really happy and has booked his next appointment already.
Thanks Stroud Foot Clinic 🙂
H Goodenough
I’d struggled with pain under the ball of my foot and along my instep for almost a year, and having come to the conclusion that it wasn’t caused by pregnancy, decided to contact the Stroud Foot Clinic for help.
The pain had become a daily nuisance and was preventing me from enjoying exercise, and even just walking.
As I contacted the clinic during lockdown, I wasn’t sure how much help I would be able to receive but straight away during a Zoom consultation, Geoff was able to give some brilliant advice and suggestions. I was given exercises and insole inserts to help determine the cause of the pain, and was eventually referred to Victoria to review my full body movement.
Victoria was also brilliant from day one. By this time I was able to come in to the clinic, and straight away I felt she understood where the problem was rooted and how we would go about resolving it.
After only a few sessions, I understood how the pain had started, what needed to change, and how I needed to do it. With the help of orthotics and exercise, my pain had disappeared by the time I went for my final session with Victoria.
I’m overjoyed to finally be pain-free, having previously resigned myself to having a permanent problem. From the very beginning, Geoff reassured me that they could help rid me of the pain, and I’m so pleased that they did.
During my visits to the clinic, social distancing measures were taken very seriously and I felt safe at all times.
Thank you to everyone at Stroud Foot Clinic.
I would certainly recommend you!
Shirley
I’ve been very happy with my treatment thus far. I’ve been extremely well looked after, a very professional service, and kept very well informed through the process. I will contact Jo for a follow up if there are more signs of the verruca which there may well be. I have already recommended your service to a number of people.
Very best wishes, Shirley.
Emily
Denise was absolutely wonderful with Nicole and her feet are better than they have been for about 2 years, wish I’d thought to come sooner! I would recommend the foot clinic – in fact I already have to my parents ! If needed I will certainly be back.
Thank you Emily
Victoria
I can quite honestly say that my whole experience of Stroud Foot Clinic has been very positive, from booking, to arrival, to feeling Covid-secure. And most importantly, that Denise worked marvels on my poor feet, and I came out feeling like I was walking on air! And she went further and gave some advice regarding my son’s foot complaint (which I typically have not yet followed up). I’m very much looking forward to my next appointment in May.
Thanks Victoria.
Barbara
I was very pleased with my session with Geoff. I felt very confident in his hands and appreciated his expert advice and care. Barbara

Jake’s feet are feeling much better now he is wearing insoles with additional support so at this stage I dont think he is in need of any follow up. Your service was fantastic and I will certainly have no issues recommending the clinic to others.

I had a good consultation with Victoria and she was very thorough in her explanation to me.
I will be making another appointment to see her in the next few months.

Purdey
We are over the moon with Purdey’s appointment with Victoria. We have been trying to understand what was happening with Purdey for a couple of years and nothings ever come back that made sense. When Victoria said what it was, it all made sense, it was like a massive YES and a huge relief. Purdey has been given exercises to strengthen the weaker muscles and the way Victoria spoke with Purdey she knows why she is doing it.
We are so thankful to Stroud Foot Clinic.
Emma-Jane
I am absolutely delighted with my recent treatment, I shall call in the future for a follow up appointment.

I was very happy with Denise’s treatment thank you. I will be back.
Julia Currie
Excellent treatment
Excellent treatment for my mother. She immediately felt welcomed by the clinic and very safe in Denise”s hands. The improvement with her feet after the first treatment has been amazing. She had been in so much pain and discomfort it was making her miserable and isolated as it was stopping her going out. Thank you!
Sally
Very pleased with visit and will definitely be returning. Will be in touch.
Thank you
Sally

Having never been to a Chiropodist before, I can honestly say Denise made me feel very relaxed .The treatment was painless she explained everything, altogether a welcoming place.
Thanks

Emma
My daughter has just come home from having her foot redressed following surgery Friday . I just want to thank all involved for making her feel so welcome and relaxed . The service has been amazing . She is now out of pain for what has been a long time coming , just wish we’d come sooner to you.
Again thank you

Very happy with Rae. She had the initiative to get an opinion from Geoff. I will book another appointment to have irritating corn, on hammer toe, drilled again with his gizmo. Will recommend the Clinic – welcoming and professional. A
Lovely clean clinic
Lovely clean clinic. Knowledgeable staff.
Everything was great as always! 😊
Paulette
Could I just say thank you for sorting out my toe nails today. Denise did an amazing job, very impressed with the service. I was anticipating a painful experience but not at all, although there was discomfort, Denise was so gentle, reassuring and thorough. As recommended by Denise I will be making a further appointment in a couple of month’s time. Thank you again. Paulette
Kerry
I’m over the moon happy with the service that I received. First Class from you chasing me to book an appointment after being referred by Paul Wray to the pre & post appointment information.
Then Geoff was amazing. He sorted me out in one visit rather than bringing me back for a second trip which was unexpected and very welcome. Everything was very clear as to costs & follow up.
He was very professional, open and honest.
To be back running after having the orthotics just a couple of weeks was amazing after being unable to run for 3 months.
Thank you Team – Kerry
Audrey
I found the whole experience very well organised & the treatment very comfortable. I was very well looked after & would recommend you to anyone.
Thank you Audrey
Sue
I am confident that my insoles are going to be a great help. I found the service from Stroud Foot Clinic to be excellent. You were so responsive & demonstrated such understanding that it gave me much needed confidence that I was on the right track. I have recommended your service to friends.
Best wishes Sue
Kirsty
I was very happy with my treatment on my hard skin around my toenails. They felt and looked so much better afterwards. Jo was very warm and friendly and explained everything she was doing. She also gave some useful aftercare advice.
Many thanks

I am very satisfied with my appointment with Hannah.
She was very thorough and professional, and her delivery was very friendly and approachable. She also took time to carefully explain all possible causes and all the measures I should take to improve my foot condition. ~Anonymous
We were absolutely delighted with all aspects of the visit. Denise was very professional,
informative, empathetic and the whole experience was both very useful and enjoyable.
My husband will certainly be using your services in the future as shall I if the need arises!
Mark
I had a very good visit all the team were very welcoming and professional. Hannah was very thorough and gave me some great help and advice to help me. Mark
I was astounded at the level of support I received from Denise at my first appointment. I have come to accept a chronic skin condition as the norm as I have lived with it for so many years. However, Denise has given me hope that a lasting improvement may be achievable, and that the combined knowledge and experience behind the Stroud Foot Clinic could have some answers. I am following her advice and have already seen an improvement.
Bill
Excellent++Resolved the problem, and gave what felt like a full MOT! Regards Bill.
I found the experience of my first visit completely satisfactory and hope to be on your books for many years to come.
Richard
Very happy with my first experience at the clinic with Geoff. Found the whole experience very professional and am happy with the treatment/advice I received.
Would certainly not hesitate in recommending the clinic to anyone else.
Kind regards Richard

Roger
I had a great experience at the clinic. I think Denise was excellent in her professional approach with great attention to detail and explaining to me the procedure she was carrying out and giving advice for me with regard to continuing foot care – which I am following to the letter. I thought my poor toenails were beyond repair but there appears to be some hope for them yet. 1 have already made a follow up appointment for 2 months.
Kind regards
Roger
Carol

I will definitely be recommending the Stroud Foot Clinic and have already made another appointment for January .
Kind regards,

Treatments
We have experience of treating a wide range of foot and ankle conditions and rather than just listing them, we find it works better if you talk to us about your particular problem so that we can work out the best care for you as an individual.
If you are not sure if you need to be seen, but just need some advice or reassurance we offer a free 15min online consultation, so we can work out if how we can help.
We specialise in not just getting people out of pain, or overcoming a problem, but in addressing the source so you don’t have to suffer again and you may find yourself moving more efficiently as a result! We aim to offer much more than a quick fix.
Whether it is a problem with nails, skin, pain, walking or running difficulties, or concerns related to specific conditions such as Diabetes, do call and we will find the right solution.

Custom Orthotics
The overall biomechanics of how we walk and move generally is dependent to a large extent upon the biomechanical health of our feet. Some of us are born with disadvantageous traits in our feet or they may become dysfunctional or weak due to injury, wear and tear, poor footwear, or simply aging. If you can improve your foot function then the rest of the body will also respond positively.
We have the advantage of modern footpad technology, where the feet are placed in silicone pads, adjusted to an ideal position by the podiatrist, and an impression is then produced. Heat mouldable insoles are then heated and placed in your unique impression to match the shape to produce comfortable insoles with appropriate correction.
Custom Orthotics Package – £197
We offer an in-house custom orthotic service enabling a quick turnaround and easy adjustment if required. The orthotic package includes the orthotics and 3 sessions:
- Moulding session to create idealised foot impressions, and make basic shape of orthotics.
- Collection of completed orthotics, with any adjustment for shoe accommodation and advice for adaptation.
- Review of performance; we need to know how you are progressing and whether any adjustments are necessary. This would typically be around 6 weeks after collection.
Treatments
Foot treatments available include:
- Athlete’s foot
- Bunions
- Corns and callus
- Flat feet
- Fungal nails
- Hammer/Claw toes
- Heel pain
- High arch feet
- Ingrown toenail – management and surgery
- Plantar fasciitis
- Verruca – cryotherapy and needling
Nail Surgery
We can now address persistent, painful ingrown toenails by permanently removing the affected nail edge. The simple and highly effective procedure is undertaken using local anaesthesia. Contact us for further details.
Shockwave Treatment
Acute and chronic injuries often need a “reset” before they can heal properly. Shockwave is a highly effective tool which sends a pulse into the tissues to promote pain relief and healing.
Clearanail System
Fungal nail infection (Onychomycosis) is a common problem that may take months or even years to heal with traditional methods of treatment. This new technology (if appropriate) enables us to safely make micro pathways through the nail plate and access the infected areas to apply topical anti-fungal solutions.
Looking for Opportunities!
Our expansion has meant that we are in need of an additional foot practitioner who can help us generally, but in particular to assist with the increasing demand that calls for knowledge of biomechanics and orthotics. We are particularly keen to work with an individual who is highly motivated to expand their skill set and be mentored by experienced staff at the clinic, to become an important member of our team. There is also a position for a more experienced Podiatrist or Foot Health Practitioner who can take on some of the work load of existing practitioners.
The premises at Phoenix House were converted for our purposes in December 2019 and boast pleasant, spacious clinic rooms with state of the art podiatry furniture and equipment. This includes, Sidas custom moulding station, Shockwave, Clearanail, Cryopen and a dedicated workshop for custom orthotics manufacture.
We work very much as a team, supporting each other in our work, and are always striving to improve the service we offer to our patients. If you would be interested to discuss what we could offer to you, please contact Geoff Boldero, or Kath Morrison info@stroudfootclinic.co.uk or 01453 706123
