Podiatry for Durach

Why people from Durach come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

In Landkreis Oberallgäu 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.

Patients from Durach often come to us on the recommendation of their GP or a diabetes outpatient clinic. Every treatment is documented so that findings and progress remain traceable for the doctors who continue their care.

How to find us: starting from Durach via B 19, a total of 34 kilometres to Kempterstrasse 25 in Memmingen. If you travel by public transport, the practice is only a few minutes from Memmingen train station.

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 Durach 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.

  • thickened, discoloured nails or nails changed by fungus

Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Durach

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 Durach 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

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.

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