Podiatrists play an important role in monitoring and managing lower limb problems to maintain an active and mobile lifestyle throughout all ages of life. 

Therefore patients who may benefit from a podiatry assessment can be diverse, ranging from monitoring children’s growth and development, managing foot pain and biomechanical problems, assisting people with chronic disease such as diabetes or those with a disability and the ageing population.
