Established by Dale Halford, a Consultant Podiatric Surgeon, Total Foot Surgery was formed to help patients in Suffolk and South Norfolk with their foot health problems.

Priding himself on the excellent levels of service provided, Dale always looks to offer friendly, straightforward advice in all consultations. At Total Foot Surgery, every available option is discussed in simple, easy to digest language, following a thorough and in-depth examination at one of three modern clinics throughout Suffolk.

With conditions affecting the foot, Total Foot Surgery believe that in some cases non-surgical procedures are often more suitable than surgical ones. Where appropriate these treatment options will be considered and discussed with you in the first instance. In cases where these treatments are not successful, or surgery is considered the only option, the procedures will be clearly explained, so our patients are fully informed before agreeing to any course of treatment.

Patients should also be aware, that at Total Foot Surgery all of our work is extensively audited using the national PASCOM-10 (Podiatric Audit of Surgery and Clinical Outcome Measurement) audit tool.


Modern procedures and inter-disciplinary care

Utilising the most modern and up-to-date procedures, such as Cartiva toe implants and Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, our aim is to get you up and running again as soon as possible and in the least invasive way achievable.

With close links to local Osteopaths and Physiotherapists, Total Foot Surgery offer true inter-disciplinary care. Where a fellow healthcare professional is better suited to providing treatment, Total Foot Surgery will always look to refer to them, to ensure our patients receive the best treatment possible, every time.

Some feedback from our clients

Having seen my slim, straight foot earlier this week it feels appropriate to thank you for making it so, and everyone else who has cared for and helped me. Please pass on my thanks to Alison, Dawn, Sarah, Wendy and Zoe, not forgetting Marilyn and Lyn, who have patiently arranged appointments etc. for me. I look forward to trying my new foot out, hopefully in the not too distant future – im sure it will look good and walk wonderfully.
