Nail Testing
This is the first step of treatment your nail fungus.
At Same Day Podiatry, we offer nail sampling and culturing to accurately identify fungal toenails, ensuring you receive the most effective treatment tailored to your specific condition. This diagnostic process is crucial because it allows us to determine the exact type of fungus responsible for your infection. By identifying the pathogen, we can prescribe targeted medications that are proven to be more effective, leading to quicker recovery and minimizing the risk of recurrence. Understanding the specific nature of your fungal infection empowers us to provide personalised care that addresses your unique needs, setting you on the path to healthier nails.
Conservative Management
At Same Day Podiatry, we understand that not every patient seeks immediate medication or surgery for fungal toenails. Our conservative management approach focuses on non-invasive techniques to promote healing and restore the health of your nails. This includes careful cutting, reshaping, and remodeling of the affected toenails using nail drills and professional nail clippers to reduce thickness and improve appearance. By removing damaged nail material, we create an environment that encourages healthy nail growth while minimizing discomfort. Our skilled podiatrists will work closely with you to develop a personalized care plan that fits your needs, helping you achieve healthier nails without the need for medication or surgical intervention.
Topical Medicine
At Same Day Podiatry, we offer effective topical medication as part of our comprehensive treatment plan for fungal toenails. As independent prescribers, we have access to a range of specialized medications that 95% of podiatrists cannot prescribe, allowing us to provide you with advanced treatment options tailored to your specific needs. Topical therapies can penetrate the nail and target the infection directly, promoting healing while minimizing systemic side effects. Our experienced podiatrists will assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate topical solutions to restore the health and appearance of your nails, ensuring you receive the highest level of care available.
Oral Prescription Medicine
At Same Day Podiatry, we recognize that some fungal toenail infections require a more aggressive approach. That’s why we offer oral prescription medication as part of our comprehensive treatment options. As independent prescribers, we have the unique ability to prescribe a variety of oral antifungal medications that 95% of podiatrists cannot access. These medications work systemically to effectively combat fungal infections from within, ensuring a targeted and robust response. Our knowledgeable podiatrists will carefully evaluate your condition and determine the best oral treatment plan tailored to your needs, helping you achieve healthier nails and restore your confidence.
Surgery
At Same Day Podiatry, we offer an advanced surgical toenail removal procedure designed for those suffering from stubborn fungal infections that resist other treatments. This minimally invasive procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, ensuring you remain comfortable and relaxed while we expertly remove the infected toenail. Following the procedure, we enhance your recovery with a tailored short course of oral or topical medication, maximizing the chances of a complete cure. Our surgical toenail removal option boasts an exceptional success rate, often reaching nearly 100%, making it one of the most effective solutions available. Trust our skilled podiatrists to guide you through every step, restoring not only the health of your nails but also your confidence in your feet. Choose this option for a fast, effective path to healthier nails and a better quality of life.
