Options for Regular Medical Toenail Trimming and Callus Care
We do not offer regular scheduled nail and callus care as a service in our clinic.
- We do provide treatment of painful ingrown toenails. Ingrown toenails are treated same or next business day in most cases.
- We also provide medical treatment of fungal toenails.
- We also have instructions on how to care for thick toenails yourself.
- If you have a very painful corn or callus, we can certainly treat that, provide pain relief, and provide you with help in preventing the corn or callus from returning
If you have any of the above issues, contact us for an appointment.
But if you need trimming of nails and calluses on a regular basis (every few months for example), we will refer you elsewhere.
The following link is a list of podiatrists and foot care nurses who provide regular medical toenail and callus care. We have had good feedback from our patients regarding these providers, but we have no affiliation with these providers and make no specific recommendations.
These services are available at:
- Podiatrists’ offices
- Community Centers
- Senior Centers
- House Calls
The nurses charge between $25 and $45 per visit. The podiatrists can usually bill Medicare for your first visit. Subsequent visits for nail and callus care are only covered if it is determined to be medically necessary.
Every nail and callus care service in the Puget Sound region that we are aware of is on this list. If we find anyone else, we’ll update the list.
Here is our current list of nail and callus care podiatrists and nurses.
