I had a pair of custom orthotics made up back in 2021 and they're still going strong and have given me a lot of relief from arthritis in my ankles. I visited again recently but this time for a very stubborn verruca I had been trying to treat with off the shelf applications for about 2years. Just two sessions and it's gone. He is very professional, knowledgeable and easy to get along with, I highly recommend this practice.
