Latest News
Marc and Ying are moving to Peebles
Marc and Ying completed after about nine months the purchase of their new Peebles Home. This means that when they move they will be local to the area of Penicuik and the Borders. However the new furniture for the new home does not arrive until mid May so they are not moving till towards the end of May.
Phone Menu Change
We are changing the phone menu to simplify things. The Clinic office in Penicuik is only manned on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Sometimes the phone will be answered from Marc's home office, but with the work re the new home this is not always going to happen on Mondays and Wednesdays. We started using a call centre specifically for new patients and this has proven to be a complete success. So all incoming calls will now go direct to the call centre. They specialise in medical clinics and have now fully mastered our methods etc. If we need to call back this will be handled on Tuesday, Thursdays and Fridays.
Staffing Changes
It is all change again. We recruited a receptionist who has handed in her notice to go to work for the civil service. We have started to advertise and had a lot of applications and are interviewing candidates next week.

DO NOT USE CORN PLASTERS!!!
This video highlights the potential dangers associated with medicated corn removers.
Recently, we treated a patient who experienced severe skin damage after using a corn plaster purchased from a local pharmacy. The salicylic acid in the plaster caused a burn that extended almost to the bone. We immediately referred her to her GP for urgent care.
We've initiated discussions with the retail pharmacy to raise awareness about the risks of selling these products without proper podiatric guidance. It's crucial to understand that while corn plasters are readily available, their misuse can lead to serious complications.
We highly recommend watching the video above before attempting any self-treatment. Being informed about the risks can prevent potential harm.
Always consult with a qualified podiatrist before using such treatments to ensure your safety and well-being.
About the Clinic
The Penicuik Podiatrist Clinic is owned and run by Podiatrist Ying Peng and is located in the Precinct area of Penicuik Town Centre. Our regular opening hours are Wednesday to Friday, along with the first Saturday of the month.
Ying herself is a nationally acknowledged expert in treating the feet of patients with Alzheimer's and Dementia. She conducts home visits exclusively on Saturdays and works for the NHS in West Lothian from Monday to Wednesday. Her husband, Marc Stuart, serves as the Practice Manager and also works from the clinic as a Medium.
The clinic also employs Kimberley Blair, a Podiatrist with over two decades of experience. Additionally, we provide a unique Gait Analysis service using Digitsole, a specialty that sets us apart as one of only four podiatry clinics in the region offering this advanced service.
Please note that the clinic has a phone system with a menu, so listen carefully to choose the correct option. Bookings can be made through our online booking system.
New patients are asked to pay in advance for their first appointment, and payment is accepted by card only.
We wish to make it clear that we are not the cheapest Podiatrists in town, nor do we claim to be. We do, however, invest heavily in both the clinic itself and support services such as our website, booking system, and phone system. We strive to respond outside of clinic hours as swiftly as possible, but please be aware that responses to phone messages might take some time.
Please let me know if there are any other changes or details you would like to include!
