HCPC Registered Podiatrist (CH037255)
Meet Ronnie – HCPC Registered Podiatrist at We Fix Feet
Hi, I’m Ronnie, a clinician at We Fix Feet, and I’m passionate about helping people move better and feel their best. My journey into podiatry came from a mix of problem-solving, creativity, and a genuine interest in healthcare. I enjoy working with patients to find the best solutions for their foot and lower limb concerns, whether MSK treatment, nail surgery, or injury rehabilitation. I hold a BSc(Hons) degree in Podiatry from the University of Wolverhampton.
Why I Chose Podiatry
I’ve always been drawn to helping others and understanding the body’s workings. My background includes customer service, sales, and graphic design, but I found my true passion in healthcare and movement. Something is rewarding about seeing a patient walk out of the clinic in less pain than when they arrived, and that’s what motivates me every day.
Staying Active
I stay active by running, going to the gym, and playing football whenever possible. I know firsthand how frustrating injuries can be, so I love helping patients get back to the activities they enjoy as quickly and safely as possible.
Outside of Work
When I’m not in the clinic, I spend much time on photography and music. I’m a self-taught guitarist and love learning new songs, and I also enjoy capturing moments through photography, whether it’s portraits, events, or landscapes.
Fun Fact About Me
If I had to pick an animal that best represents me, I’d say a black jaguar—calm, observant, and always ready for the next challenge!
