About Louise
I’m Louise, director and podiatrist. I’ve spent over three decades helping the amazing people of Sheffield with their foot problems. I’ve enjoyed countless walks in the Peak District and Ecclesall Woods with my beloved dog, Freddie, who has now sadly crossed over the rainbow bridge.
When I’m not out walking, I love to dance and take weekly tap classes at Sheffield Performing Arts. I’m also a proud mom to Emily and James and recently became a Nanny to my gorgeous granddaughter, Elsie. Alongside my husband, Paul (who you might recognise), we share a close-knit family filled with laughter.
I look forward to unwinding with a Bacardi and diet coke on Friday nights, especially enjoying one with my podiatry family after a conference or course.
If you want a safe space to get your foot problem treated, I can help you. I truly love helping my patients achieve great foot health. With years of experience, I take the time to listen to your concerns and provide personalised care. My goal is to help you move comfortably so you can enjoy life to the fullest, one step at a time!
About Emily
I’m Emily, director and podiatrist. I’m passionate about finding joy in every aspect of life. We share countless laughs at work, and I want everyone to experience that same sense of fun!
Before becoming a podiatrist, I was a professional dancer, classically trained in ballet, jazz, and tap. I had the incredible opportunity to work in London and perform at Disneyland Paris. One of my proudest moments was serving as the dance captain for the Sheffield Lyceum pantomime - I’ve done it five times!
I’m blessed with a wonderful family, including my husband Andrew and our beautiful baby daughter, Elsie, who brings endless joy to our lives. Our cheeky cockapoo, Cooper keeps us on our toes (you might even spot him in the clinic!).
My background in dance informs my specialty in musculoskeletal injuries of the foot and ankle. I understand how crucial it is to maintain movement and flexibility, and I’m dedicated to keeping you pain-free so you can enjoy the activities you love. If you’re dealing with nagging foot pain, I’m here to help! Together, we’ll get you back on your feet and living life to the fullest.
About Kirsty
Hi, I’m Kirsty! With extensive experience in the private podiatry sector, I’m excited to help you with any foot issues you may have. I have a particular passion for wound care and dermatology, so if you’re dealing with skin or nail problems, I’m here to provide the support you need.
I recently married my wonderful husband, Adam, in beautiful Sorrento during the summer. It was a magical experience filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories! We share our home with our adorable cats, Mango and Prinny. I have a special fondness for ginger cats, but I truly adore all animals and enjoy spending time with them.
Travelling is one of my favourite pastimes, and I have a passion for skiing and snowboarding. The thrill of gliding down the slopes is unmatched! If you enjoy snow sports, I’d love to swap stories about our adventures on the mountains!
Rest assured, I’ve seen it all in my career, so there’s no need to worry about your concerns. I can’t wait to welcome you to the clinic and help you on your journey to healthier, happier feet! Your comfort and well-being are my top priorities.
About Paul
Hi, I’m Paul! As the director and clinical coordinator here at LR Podiatry, it’s my job to ensure you’re matched with the right podiatrist for the best possible treatment outcomes. I’m also proud to be Louise's husband and Emily's dad, which gives me valuable insight into the world of podiatry!
Having recently transitioned from the building trade, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed turning our North Church Street premises into a welcoming space. I’m passionate about creating an environment where our patients feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m always looking for ways to enhance our clinic and improve your experience.
I genuinely look forward to welcoming you to our space at your appointment. Your comfort is my priority, and I want every visit to be enjoyable and stress-free. Together, we’ll ensure your foot health is in great hands!
About Meg
I'm Megan, my passion for foot health is matched by my love for the arts. I hold an additional degree in English Literature and film which I am keen to integrate into my professional approach to patient care and education.
I have a particular interest in musculoskeletal issues, dedicated to helping patients overcome pain and regain mobility.
Outside of clinic, I love running, horse riding and swimming, I thrive in the great outdoors!
I understand the importance of movement both mentally and physically and so I strive to help you get back to doing the things you love!
About Uzzie
As the Clinical Coordinator at LR Podiatry, I’m here to make sure every patient feels welcome and that their experience with us is as smooth and comfortable as possible.
Outside of the clinic, I’m a passionate home cook with a flair for healthy, savoury dishes—baking’s not my thing, as I’m not much of a cake fan!
When I’m not in the kitchen, I love tending to my garden or taking long woodland walks with my dog, Maggie, especially if there’s a good coffee spot along the way. I also enjoy experimenting with homemade soap and bath bombs, and I’m looking forward to learning the art of scented candle-making. At home, I live with my teenage daughter, whose energy keeps life fun and wonderfully unpredictable.
About Cooper, our Pawdiatrist!
Hi, I’m Cooper, I love making new friends! As morale officer, my job is to keep spirits high! If you like dogs, I can tell, and I’ll happily come over to say hello. I especially love it when you give my belly a scratch - it’s my favourite!
I also want to take a moment to honour my dear friend, Freddie. He was a beloved part of our family and clinic for 17 years and taught me everything I know. Freddie was a calm dog with a kind soul, and he brought joy to so many of our patients. His gentle presence is greatly missed, but his spirit lives on in our hearts and in the way we care for our community.
