Podiatry for Holzgünz

Why people from Holzgünz come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

Podiatry begins where cosmetic foot care has to stop. That is why patients from Holzgünz do not receive a wellness treatment from us, but a professional assessment with a treatment plan, progress checks and written documentation.

In Holzgünz and the surrounding villages you will find cosmetic foot care studios, but no podiatry practice with statutory health insurance accreditation. The route via B 18 takes around 15 minutes, which is a very manageable distance for treatment that is allowed to work on an already affected foot.

Directions: from Holzgünz, follow B 18 towards Memmingen. After around 13 kilometres you reach the city area; the practice is at Kempterstrasse 25 with parking spaces right next to the building. Allow about 15 minutes of pure driving time.

After treatment we discuss the right rhythm: eight to ten weeks is usually enough for unremarkable feet, while diabetes or an active nail brace calls for four to six weeks. The next appointment is booked straight away, so the trip from Holzgünz stays easy to plan.

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

  • painful corns, calluses and cracked heels (fissures)

Diabetic foot

Prescription and insurance cover, even from Holzgünz

For diabetic foot syndrome, complex podiatric treatment is a prescribable medical treatment. Your GP or diabetologist in Holzgünz or Landkreis Unterallgäu issues the prescription, and we handle treatment and documentation. You only pay the statutory co-payment, since our health insurance accreditation applies nationwide.

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

For us, hygiene is a process, not a promise. Our reprocessing follows the recommendations of the Robert Koch Institute; burrs and instruments are machine-cleaned, disinfected, packaged and sterilised in an autoclave after every treatment.

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