Podiatry Specialist Opportunity in Bolton
If you are passionate about podiatry and want to provide a quality service for the high-risk patients of Bolton, we are looking to welcome you into our integrated specialist podiatry team.
About the Role
The successful candidate will be responsible for treatment planning and management of foot complications associated with, for example, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and vascular/ischaemic long-term conditions. You will be part of the foot protection team and have the opportunity to work across all areas of podiatry including:
- Biomechanics/MSK assessment clinics

- Provide an efficient and high-quality specialised podiatry service for high-risk patients throughout all specialist areas as per service need.
- As an experienced autonomous practitioner, assess, diagnose, and treat patients on their case lists in all clinical settings.
