​
Q: What does the "Medical Pedicure" visit include?
A: The Medical Pedicure visit includes an overall assessment of the lower extremities: skin, vascular, neurological, and musculoskeletal status. The toenails will be trimmed and filed at the end of the visit and a moisturizer will be massaged into the legs and feet.
​
Q: What are the common reasons clients need your services?​
A: Most clients who utilize our services have trouble trimming their own toenails (vision ailments, difficulty bending over, etc.) as well have thick and discolored toenails (fungal nails) which require a higher level of filing and shaping (vs. trimming alone).​
​

A: Either our physician Adam Cornejo, DPM or one of our podiatric technicians who have been trained and are guided by Dr. Cornejo.

​
Q: How soon can I expect to be seen for an appointment after calling?
A: We can see most clients within 24 hours after calling and otherwise can see everyone within a week's time.
​​
Q: What will I need upon arrival for our visit?
A: Typically, it helps if our clients have a bath towel to lay down under their feet during the exam. Sitting in a reclining chair or laying in bed makes the visit easier as well.
​
Q: What cities do you come to?
A: We are located in Albuquerque and serve the central NM region. We are willing to go further if the need and volume present themselves. Just ask.
