A podiatrist at Rondom Podotherapeuten specialises in foot problems and issues arising from posture and movement. Our podiatrists carry out a thorough assessment and devise a suitable solution. This may be a bespoke podiatric insole, or it could be an orthosis or taping. Our podiatrists also treat people with rheumatism or diabetes, sportspeople, those in physically demanding jobs and children with foot problems. In the Netherlands, podiatry has been a legally recognised paramedical profession since 1982. ‘Podiatrist’ is a legally protected title, which may only be used by someone who has completed a bachelor’s degree in podiatry at a university of applied sciences.

People can see a podiatrist for more than just foot problems. If you are experiencing problems with your toes, nails, ankles, knees, hips or back, a visit to the podiatrist is a good idea. The podiatrist treats complaints arising from the malfunctioning of the feet and/or legs, an abnormal foot position or an incorrect gait. This, in turn, can lead to other complaints in different parts of the body, such as strain on a muscle or joint.

Nutrition does not stand alone. That is why our dietitians work alongside other healthcare professionals at Rondom where necessary. These include, for example, lifestyle coaches, physiotherapists, psychologists, occupational therapists and podiatrists.

By working together, we ensure that the care we provide is well co-ordinated. This means you receive support that is tailored to your goals and everyday life.
