Podiatry for Altheim
Why people from Altheim come to a podiatrist in Memmingen
Many patients from Altheim come to us after a cosmetic treatment did not help. A diseased foot needs medical foot care: sterile instruments, a trained eye, and treatment that a GP can prescribe and follow.
Altheim is around 62 kilometres away. People who make this journey usually come with a specific need: a nail brace that actually fits, a well-made nail prosthesis, or documented treatment that their GP will accept.
Directions: from Altheim, follow A 7 / B 311 towards Memmingen. After around 62 kilometres you reach the city area; the practice is at Kempterstrasse 25 with parking spaces right next to the building. Allow about 75 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 Altheim 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.
Reasons for treatment
When podiatric treatment makes sense
The most common reasons patients from Altheim and the surrounding area come to us:
burning or numb feet that disturb sleep at night- ingrown or curled toenails that hurt with every step
- reduced mobility or eyesight, when caring for your own feet is no longer safe
- nail changes caused by psoriasis or rheumatism
- plantar warts on the sole of the foot
- pain under the forefoot from long periods of standing at work
- pressure points caused by misalignments such as bunions or hammer toes
- foot care during chemotherapy or while taking blood thinners

Diabetic foot
Prescription and insurance cover, even from Altheim
For diabetic foot syndrome, complex podiatric treatment is a prescribable medical treatment. Your GP or diabetologist in Altheim or Landkreis Alb-Donau-Kreis 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.

Frequently asked questions from Altheim
Answers at a glance
Wie oft muss ich aus Altheim zur Behandlung kommen?
Bei unauffälligen Füßen reichen Termine alle acht bis zehn Wochen. Bei Diabetes, laufender Nagelspange oder starker Hornhautbildung sind vier bis sechs Wochen sinnvoll. Den Folgetermin legen wir direkt im Anschluss fest, damit die Fahrt aus Altheim planbar bleibt.
Was sollte ich aus Altheim zum ersten Termin mitbringen?
Bringen Sie die ärztliche Verordnung mit, falls vorhanden, dazu eine Liste Ihrer Medikamente und – bei Diabetes – Ihren Diabetikerpass. Wenn Sie Einlagen oder spezielle Schuhe tragen, nehmen Sie diese bitte ebenfalls mit.
Can I get a short-notice appointment as a new patient from Altheim?
We work with fixed appointment slots rather than long waiting lists. A call to 089 15880714 is enough; we will tell you the next available slot straight away and take your journey from Altheim into account.
How often should I come from Altheim for treatment?
For unremarkable feet, appointments every eight to ten weeks are sufficient. For diabetes, nail brace therapy or heavy callus formation we recommend every four to six weeks. We arrange the next appointment right at the end of the current one.
Is there a podiatrist with health insurance accreditation in Altheim?
We are not aware of any podiatry practice with statutory health insurance accreditation in Altheim 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 75 minutes away from Altheim.
Is mobile foot care available in Altheim if I cannot get to the practice?
Yes, we come to you. For patients from Altheim 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.
