Podiatry for Heimertingen

Why people from Heimertingen 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 Heimertingen this matters most when conditions such as diabetes, rheumatism or neuropathy are involved and every imprecise cut can have consequences.

With 8 kilometres to travel, we often see several people from the same household in Heimertingen on the same day, for example a couple with back-to-back appointments. That saves a second trip and makes aftercare at home much simpler.

Route: via B 18 it is 8 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.

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 Heimertingen 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.

Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Heimertingen

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 Unterallgäu prescribe complex podiatric treatment as a health insurance benefit, for patients from Heimertingen 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.
