Damian and Vicky are fantastic and sorted out my very painful foot. I’ve used their services for quite some time and they never disappoint. The ladies at Reception are fab too and we always have a laugh. Highly recommended.

I have been visiting Footfriend now for over 12 years . During this time, I have found the standard of care and service to be first class . As I get older , I find visiting a professional very superior to trying to care for my feet and toes myself.

John Bullock, Beverley

That feels lovely, it’s like walking on air.

Mrs Cooper, South Cave

Toes all fine! Thank for a first class job.

Mr.Hazell, Shiptonthorpe

Very experienced. Will definitely be going back.

I have been a client with Damian for a number of years. I am a Type 2 Diabetic and visit every eight weeks, Damian takes very good care of my feet, and keeps me up to date with information on the care of my feet, including ill fitting shoes. I would recommend him to all of my friends.
