Podiatry for Betzigau

Why people from Betzigau come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

Many patients from Betzigau 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.

Patients from Betzigau often tell us they had spent a long time searching for a practice that could bill on the basis of a doctor's prescription. That is exactly the difference: podiatry is a prescribable medical treatment, cosmetic foot care is not.

How to find us: starting from Betzigau via B 19, a total of 32 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 Betzigau 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 Betzigau and the surrounding area come to us:

  • pain under the forefoot from long periods of standing at work
  • painful corns, calluses and cracked heels (fissures)
  • plantar warts on the sole of the foot
  • nail loss after an injury or bruising under the nail
  • nail changes caused by psoriasis or rheumatism
  • diabetes mellitus with reduced sensation in the feet
  • reduced mobility or eyesight, when caring for your own feet is no longer safe
  • dry, flaking skin with deep cracks on the heel

Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Betzigau

If your doctor has issued a prescription, we bill your health insurer directly. Patients from Betzigau 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

We work on the principle of "one patient, one set": a sealed box of freshly sterilised instruments is opened for every treatment. Cleaning, disinfection, packaging and sterilisation are all logged and traceable.
