Podiatry for Thannhausen

Why people from Thannhausen come to a podiatrist in Memmingen

Many patients from Thannhausen 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.

With 25 kilometres to cover, we schedule follow-up appointments right after the current treatment. That way no gaps appear, which matters for a nail correction that is monitored over several months, or for checking a diabetic foot.

How to find us: starting from Thannhausen via B 300, a total of 25 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 Thannhausen 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 Thannhausen

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

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

Frequently asked questions from Thannhausen

Answers at a glance

Welche Route ist von Thannhausen aus am schnellsten?

In der Regel führt die schnellste Verbindung über die B 300. Alternativ bieten sich bei Stau auch kleinere Kreisstraßen als Ausweichroute an.

Lohnt sich die Fahrt aus Thannhausen für einen Termin in Memmingen?

Bei rund 25 Kilometern Entfernung ist die Praxis für Patienten aus Thannhausen gut erreichbar. Viele nutzen die B 300, um Wartezeiten durch frühe Termine zu vermeiden.

How often should I come from Thannhausen 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.

Is there a podiatrist with health insurance accreditation in Thannhausen?

We are not aware of any podiatry practice with statutory health insurance accreditation in Thannhausen itself. Cosmetic foot care is not permitted to work on an already affected foot; that requires a state-certified podiatrist. Our practice in Memmingen is around 29 minutes away from Thannhausen.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please bring your doctor's prescription if you have one, a list of your medications, and your diabetes passport if you have diabetes. If you wear insoles or orthopaedic shoes, please bring those along as well.

Do you offer home visits for patients from Thannhausen?

Yes. Home visits are a fixed part of our service, including in Thannhausen and the surrounding area. The process matches an appointment at the practice: assessment, nail and callus treatment, care for pressure points, and a final consultation for family members or carers. With a doctor's prescription we bill the home visit directly with your health insurer; self-pay patients incur a small travel fee.
