What to Expect at your First Appointment
Before you come to your first chiropody appointment, you should make sure to bring as much information as possible. Bring a list of your medications, any previous relevant x-rays, CT scans, or relevant medical test results. You can also bring your shoes that you wear regularly so your chiropodist can make appropriate suggestions for footwear.
You should also be prepared to answer some questions about your medical background so the chiropodist can have a complete understanding of your history and conditions.
