Corns and calluses are thickened areas of skin caused by repeated pressure or friction. To prevent them, wear properly fitting shoes, use cushioned insoles, keep your feet clean and moisturized, and avoid excessive pressure or rubbing. If you already have corns or calluses, seek professional treatment from a Podiatrist to safely remove them and address any underlying biomechanical issues."
Most of our customers get relief after their first session, and recover completely after finishing the program.
Dr Gladys and her receptionist are very friendly. I got helped on my first day and already feeling better. Hope my next visit will be for something else not for the con between my toes. I didn’t feel a thing when she scraped my con and dead skin on the side of my foot.
Recovered Patient
To be honest, I have never heard of a podiatrist before! My doctor recommended Gladys and I am so glad that I listened to her. She spent a long time on patiently fixing my toenails. I left with a prescription and good advice. I can strongly recommend her to anyone with any feet related problems!
