Podiatry consultations in La Chaux-de-Fonds

At the Astrid BEDDELEEM practice, she can treat all skin and nail problems and provide you with the best advice on how to deal with structural deformities. She can also provide comprehensive care for diabetic patients. Diabetes complications affecting the feet are closely linked to a decrease in nerve sensitivity, preventing the perception of small injuries or abnormalities of the foot (corns, calluses, cracks, fissures, fungal infections, etc.), which eventually worsen and become infected.

Remember to have your feet checked regularly to keep them healthy

Seeing your podiatrist regularly will allow you to monitor your feet and prevent potential complications. You will also receive advice on everyday care.

Podiatrists are required to undergo training throughout their careers to keep their knowledge up to date in a constantly evolving medical world.
