The Podiatry Teaching Clinic of the University of Bologna provides services for the well-being and health of your feet. The clinic is manned by medical students from the Podiatry degree programme, under the supervision of professional podiatry tutors.
The clinic welcomes patients of all ages, particularly the elderly who most frequently suffer from foot conditions related to other diseases such as diabetes, vascular diseases, rheumatic conditions and kidney disorders. The services include the prevention of podiatric complications in patients undergoing cancer treatment. Innovative equipment, including a latest-generation baropodometry platform, is also available to sportsmen and women, for biomechanical evaluations, to study posture and motion and support the choice of correct footwear.
The clinic is open by appointment (by phone) and does not require a referral from your GP. Charges are lower than standard market prices given the nature of this teaching clinic.
