About the clinic

Foot care without the compromise.

Stratford Foot Clinic is an independent podiatry practice in the heart of East London, born from a simple idea: that every patient deserves real time, real attention and care that's built entirely around them.

Our story

Why we're here.

Stratford Foot Clinic was founded with one goal in mind: to practise podiatry free from the time and financial constraints that so often limit what a clinician can offer.

The result is a practice with the freedom to do things properly, to listen, assess and treat without the pressures of budgets or backlogs. The aim was never to be the biggest; it was to be the best we possibly could for every patient who walks through the door.

From routine foot care to nail surgery, wound care and biomechanics, we treat the full range of foot and lower-limb conditions, for patients of every age, whether they come to us or we come to them.

Our home

Part of the community.

You'll find us at Ithaca House on Romford Road, a building we're proud to share with the Independent Newham Users' Forum (INUF), an independent, user-led mental health charity that has supported the people of Newham for many years. Their team looks after the building's reception, so you'll always be met with a friendly face.

The building takes its name from the Greek island of Ithaca, a safe haven for those travelling through rough seas. We think that's a fitting spirit for a place dedicated to care and wellbeing.

Our approach

No corners cut.

Whatever brings you in, our job is to get to the bottom of it, to find the cause, explain it in plain English, and put it right.

A thorough assessment, every time We diagnose before we treat, so the cause is addressed, not just the symptom.

Honest advice, always No upselling and no jargon. Sometimes that means recommending less treatment, not more.

Results that last We treat the underlying cause wherever we can, so problems are less likely to return.

Clean, safe and careful Sterile instruments and rigorous infection control at every appointment.
