“Healthy feet contribute to our daily quality of life”

The health of the foot plays a significant role in proper posture and gait and consequently adds comfort to our daily live.

This usually becomes evident when severe pain and discomfort when walking is experienced. Conditions like bunions or hammer toes are common. Moreover, the consequences of injury can lead to problems in the foot and ankle joint such as instability after a torn ligament and osteoarthritis after a fracture.

This category includes common sport and championship sport injuries.

Diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis can also cause pathological deteriorations in the foot over time which lead to functional problems and pain.

A wide spectrum of effective conservative and interventional foot methods are used to treat patients.
The appropriate use of specialised technical means also assists in the diagnosis treatment of the illness, even when in the early stages.

Dr. Loukas Konstantinou, who specialised in foot surgery in Germany, is available twice per week at the Foot Clinic of the Central Clinic.
Call 210-3674000 to make an appointment or come and visit us at the Foot Clinic.

We ensure that all patients are fully informed about the cause of their condition and the conservative or interventional treatment required.
We look forward to welcoming you to our clinic.
