Nail Surgery
We offer two main options for nail surgery referral
- Initially standard ingrown toenail referrals can be received by the podiatry team and partial or total nail avulsions may be performed after pre-surgical assessment. Surgical matrix ablation is achieved chemically by phenol application. Some patients may be offered electrosurgical matrix destruction.
- Onward referral can be made to Consultant Podiatic Surgeon Mr E Barlow-Kearsley when excisional nail surgery can also be considered. Excisional nail surgery includes Winograd or Zadeks procedures. Direct referral to Mr Barlow-Kearsley can be made.
Please see how to refer to us.
