A gentleman, who explained exactly what treatment he intended to do. He did not make me feel my age when chatting.
Polite, professional and explained everything really well
Review for Podiatrist Consultant Liam Stapleton I have been a patient of Liam Stapleton for several years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Liam is consistently professional, attentive, and genuinely thorough. He always takes the time to listen carefully, explains everything clearly, and makes sure you fully understand both the problem and the treatment options. What really sets him apart is how deeply he thinks about each case rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. He looks at issues from multiple angles, not just the painful area itself. He considers overall functionality, gait, posture, and the geometry of movement, and how all of these interact and impact the body. This holistic and biomechanical approach has made a huge difference to my outcomes over the years. You never feel rushed, dismissed, or treated like a number. Liam is thoughtful, analytical, and genuinely committed to finding the root cause of problems rather than just treating symptoms. If you are looking for a podiatrist consultant who is highly knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and truly invested in long-term functional improvement, Liam Stapleton is exceptional.
Very pleased with Mr Stapleton. My removal of my big toe nail today. It was exactly like I was told very impressed
