Podiatry for Altenstadt

Why people from Altenstadt come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

Podiatry begins where cosmetic foot care has to stop. That is why patients from Altenstadt do not receive a wellness treatment from us, but a professional assessment with a treatment plan, progress checks and written documentation.

From Altenstadt it is 22 kilometres via B 19. Patients usually travel this distance regularly when there is an ongoing diagnosis behind it: diabetes, rheumatism, neuropathy or recurring ingrown toenails.

Directions: from Altenstadt, follow B 19 towards Memmingen. After around 22 kilometres you reach the city area; the practice is at Kempterstrasse 25 with parking spaces right next to the building. Allow about 25 minutes of pure driving time.

After treatment we discuss the right rhythm: eight to ten weeks is usually enough for unremarkable feet, while diabetes or an active nail brace calls for four to six weeks. The next appointment is booked straight away, so the trip from Altenstadt stays easy to plan.

The practice is run by Helga Maria Freitag, a state-certified podiatrist and, since March 2026, also a sectoral alternative practitioner for podiatry with almost 40 years of experience caring for people at home. This dual qualification means for you that findings are not just treated but properly assessed, and where necessary we refer you to the right specialist.

Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Altenstadt

For diabetic foot syndrome, complex podiatric treatment is a prescribable medical treatment. Your GP or diabetologist in Altenstadt or Landkreis Neu-Ulm issues the prescription, and we handle treatment and documentation. You only pay the statutory co-payment, since our health insurance accreditation applies nationwide.

We work with a reduced risk of injury, check skin, nail folds and pressure points at every appointment, and report any concerns back to the referring practice without delay.

Hygiene

A sterile instrument set for every patient

For us, hygiene is a process, not a promise. Our reprocessing follows the recommendations of the Robert Koch Institute; burrs and instruments are machine-cleaned, disinfected, packaged and sterilised in an autoclave after every treatment.

You can read more about our hygiene concept on the Hygiene page.

Is there a podiatrist with health insurance accreditation in Altenstadt?

We are not aware of any podiatry practice with statutory health insurance accreditation in Altenstadt itself. Cosmetic foot care is not permitted to work on an already affected foot; that requires a state-certified podiatrist. Our practice in Memmingen is around 25 minutes away from Altenstadt.

Can I use the cryotherapy chamber alongside my foot care appointment?

Yes, the Memmingen cryotherapy chamber is at the same address on Kempterstrasse 25. Many patients from Altenstadt combine both, for example for rheumatism, chronic pain or inflammation.

Do you also treat people who have difficulty walking?

Yes. The practice is accessible at ground level and parking is right outside. If you are driven by family members from Altenstadt, we schedule the appointment so there is no long wait.

Is mobile foot care available in Altenstadt if I cannot get to the practice?

Yes, we come to you. For patients from Altenstadt who cannot travel to Kempterstrasse because of care needs, limited mobility or a lack of transport, we treat you on site at home, in assisted living or in a care facility. We bring the instruments, suction equipment and sterile materials with us.
