About Us
We are former NHS Senior Chiropodists and Podiatrists, working together to cure your family foot problems

Jonathan Small
Lead Podiatrist
I qualified from Cardiff School of Chiropody in 1990 having won the Prize for Practical Chiropody. I worked in Banbury and then in South Warwickshire, specialising in Diabetic Foot Care.
I was a member of the Gait and Movement Analysis Team at Royal Leamington Spa Rehabilitation Hospital and subsequently became a Consultant Podiatrist for Worcestershire NHS.
I went into private practice to make the most of my skills. My aim is to cure family foot problems rather than continuing with regular treatment.
Judy DeArmitt
Associate Podiatrist
Hi, I'm Judy. I qualified from the Sussex School of Chiropody in 1992 with a BSc in Podiatry. I initially worked as a Podiatrist for Scholl in Cheltenham before moving on to Portsmouth and S.E. Hampshire Health Authority.
I then spent a few years working in America in retail management. After returning to England and taking a break to have my children I have undertaken extensive refresher training to gain my Health Professions Council registration.
I work Wednesdays at Health First in Southam, providing Podiatry treatments for a wide range of conditions.


Kate Hughes, Liz Dean, Pauline Young, Diane Small
Receptionists
The day-to-day running of the practice falls to Kate who joined the team at Health First in 2015 having previously worked in the travel industry.
Liz is semi-retired from running the practice, but still does the book-keeping alongside reception work.
Pauline and Diane provide adhoc reception cover when required. They work together to maintain the day-to-day administration of the practice including making patient appointments, updating records and processing and dealing with any queries relating to any aspect of the work at Health First.
Together they provide a friendly and helpful service for all of our patients and clients.
