Podiatry service offered in health centre
Thursday 28th May 2009
A podiatry service is to be among the services provided in a medical centre which has just been officially opened.
During a recent ceremony, deputy first minister of the Scottish government Nicola Sturgeon described the £10 million facility as the "most impressive" she has visited.
She added that it is a "fantastic example" of different organisations working together to improve services for patients.
Called Pollok Civic Realm, the centre is located in Glasgow and houses a sexual health clinic and a dental practice in addition to the podiatrist.
It serves in the region of 17,000 patients.
Andrew Robertson, chairman of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde, commented: "Much of the success of the new facility is due to the dedication, expertise and commitment of its staff and the partnership working between all of the agencies involved."
Another health centre which is to offer podiatry services is to open in Stockton in 2013, local paper the Evening Gazette reported.
