Specialist Advice

For hammer toes or claw toes, you'll want to see an orthopaedic surgeon who specialises in foot and ankle, hor. You can start by asking your GP for a referral, or if you want to go private, just call ahead to make sure they handle foot issues specifically because some ortho surgeons focus on different areas. They'll be able to assess whether physio and proper footwear can help or if you really need surgery, so it's worth getting that expert opinion early rather than leaving it.
