foot and nail care

Foot and Nail Care services meet both the routine and advanced needs of our patients.

Appointments last about one hour and returning appointments are typically scheduled every 8 weeks. At each visit, patients can receive:

• A foot soak; 

• Clipping and debriding of nails; 

• Care of thick nails, calluses, and corns;

• and moisturizing treatment.

During the appointment, if more serious issues are identified requiring further attention such as ingrown toenails, ulcerations, or infection in the nails or feet, patients can be referred to a Podiatrist or one of our family practice providers.

Foot and Nail Care services are provided by an RN/Diabetes Educator and an LPN for $25/session. Insurance will not be billed for services. Payment by cash, check, or credit card will be due at the time of service.

Appointments for Foot and Nail Care can be made by calling Burnett Medical Center at 715-463-5353.

Gift certificates are available.
