Podiatry for Altusried

Why people from Altusried come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

Between cosmetic foot care and podiatry lies a three-year professional training with a state examination. For people from Altusried this matters most when conditions such as diabetes, rheumatism or neuropathy are involved and every imprecise cut can have consequences.

Between Altusried and Memmingen lies a drive of around 26 minutes. The trip pays off above all for treatments that take time and skill: nail braces, nail reconstruction after nail loss, or silicone orthoses against pressure points.

Route: via St 2009 it is 23 kilometres to Memmingen. Access to the practice at Kempterstrasse 25 is step-free, and parking is available directly in front, which helps if walking already hurts.

If a doctor's prescription is available, we bill your health insurer directly and you only pay the statutory co-payment. Without a prescription you pay privately, which is always possible from Altusried too, with transparent prices you can check in advance.

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 Altusried

Nerve damage removes the foot's early warning signal, pain. A small pressure point can then go unnoticed until it has already become a wound. That is why doctors in Landkreis Oberallgäu prescribe complex podiatric treatment as a health insurance benefit, for patients from Altusried just as much as from Memmingen itself.

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

With nail fungus in particular, thorough reprocessing is essential, as spores survive simple disinfection. That is why every instrument is cleaned, thermally disinfected and sterilised after each appointment before it is used again.

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

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

Yes, we come to you. For patients from Altusried 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.
