Podiatry for Waltenhofen

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

Patients from Waltenhofen 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 Waltenhofen via B 19, a total of 38 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 Waltenhofen 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.

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 also come to my home in Waltenhofen for foot care?

Yes. Alongside appointments at the practice, we offer mobile foot care as a home visit, including in Waltenhofen. If you are no longer very mobile, are recovering at home after surgery, or receive care, you get the full podiatric treatment in your own living room, with the same equipment and hygiene standards as in the practice. You can find more on our mobile foot care page or by calling 089 15880714.
