Podiatry for Berkheim
Why people from Berkheim come to a podiatrist in Memmingen
In Landkreis Biberach you will find plenty of cosmetic foot care providers, but a podiatry practice with health insurance accreditation is rare. That difference decides who is even allowed to work on an affected foot: podiatry is a prescribable medical treatment, cosmetic foot care is not.
In Berkheim and the surrounding villages you will find cosmetic foot care studios, but no podiatry practice with statutory health insurance accreditation. The route via B 312 takes around 17 minutes, which is a very manageable distance for treatment that is allowed to work on an already affected foot.
How to find us: starting from Berkheim via B 312, a total of 15 kilometres to Kempterstrasse 25 in Memmingen. If you travel by public transport, the practice is only a few minutes from Memmingen train station.
An appointment lasts 45 to 60 minutes. We work with sterile instruments; every set arrives freshly processed from its own sealed "one patient, one set" box. Patients travelling from Berkheim receive a short guide for care at home at the end of the session.
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 Berkheim and the surrounding area come to us:
plantar warts on the sole of the foot- circulatory problems, rheumatism or neuropathy
- painful corns, calluses and cracked heels (fissures)
- ingrown or curled toenails that hurt with every step
- pain under the forefoot from long periods of standing at work
- dry, flaking skin with deep cracks on the heel
- recurring blisters and pressure points from work or sports shoes
- reduced mobility or eyesight, when caring for your own feet is no longer safe

Diabetic foot
Prescription and insurance cover, even from Berkheim
If your doctor has issued a prescription, we bill your health insurer directly. Patients from Berkheim then only pay the statutory co-payment. Without a prescription, treatment is always available as a self-pay service at transparent prices.
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.

What is the difference between podiatry and cosmetic foot care?
Podiatry is medical foot care provided by state-certified specialists and is a prescribable medical treatment. It is allowed to work on a diseased foot, for example in cases of diabetes, circulatory problems, nail fungus or ingrown nails. Cosmetic foot care is purely pampering for a healthy foot.

Via B 312 it is around 15 kilometres, so roughly 17 minutes. Parking is available directly outside the practice at Kempterstrasse 25.
How often should I come from Berkheim 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.
Do you also come to my home in Berkheim for foot care?
Yes. Alongside appointments at the practice, we offer mobile foot care as a home visit, including in Berkheim. If you are no longer very mobile, are recovering at home after surgery, or receive care, you get the full podiatric treatment in your own living room, with the same equipment and hygiene standards as in the practice. You can find more on our mobile foot care page or by calling 089 15880714.
