A friend recommended i visit Steve Dowdeswell at the Shropshire Foot Specialists whilst playing golf. I had reached the stage of giving up and was going to consider seriously reducing my twice weekly games to an occasional summer round. At the point of calling Steve my toe joint underneath was bad enough to prevent me from walking around the shops in town. All that pain from a small joint!
An injury to the ligament and capsule around an arthritic joint was diagnosed quickly, more than the doctor had done when giving me countless pain tablets. Steve assessed me walking and standing. It was then that he commented upon my flat feet and “Charlie Chaplin” walking style (His words). He used a scanner to cast my foot and make Custom Inserts. I did not realise that he was a true expert in his field and has a company that consults and supplies Braces and Orthotics to Medical practices around the country, but it was great to find this ingenuity in Telford on my doorstep.
I required 4 adjustments to the Medical Insoles over a month, all included in the price. As promised I am 90% better and last week played 3 rounds of golf. Steven did offer me a steroid injection at a latter point if required. But I can say that the improvement is remarkable. One point I would note is that the art and science behind this is very fine, I was amazed how a few millimeters of alteration could affect my symptoms and it is that expertise and time that i was happy to pay for and happy to recommend.
Fantastic, caring company.

My right foot and ankle has been steadily deteriorating after an injury 5 years ago. It reached the stage where the cheap insoles I had to purchase every month were of no use and I could not stand or walk with pain relief. It was my wife who literally forced through the door of Mr Dowdeswell, the Foot Specialist in Telford. I had given up as the doctor and physiotherapist had said it required urgent surgery, which is not an option as i have to work!
Steven quickly identified that I had injured a tendon behind the ankle, he was confident at helping and i felt at ease when he could tell me that he deals with dozens of similar injuries each year.
An ultrasound scan showed him the problem, and he explained that the injury had caused my foot to collapse and all the pain to the arch and ankle stemmed from the same tendon problem!! A 3D scanner captured a model of my foot and he personally design Special Orthotic inserts for my foot and specific injury. This took two 30 minute consults a week apart.
The 1st Pair had to be adjusted, on the same day. The revised Precision Made Orthotics were extremely beneficial to say the least. Steven has told me that surgery is still a possibility in the next 5 years. But i can walk with 80% reduction of pain, the swelling has all but gone and the tendon is now working again. For reference the orthotics were made for posterior tibial dysfunction and were manufactured by The Foot Specialists in their own laboratory. The technology and experience works.
A true gent and I happily refer my own customers and friends.

My wife and I would be grateful if you would pass on our sincere thanks to all the staff we came on contact with throughout the somewhat difficult move. Your allocated team including the extra two was a credit to you and the reputation of Wrekin removals. Throughout the protracted period of never Knowing when the move wold take place your team always managed to put my mind at ease, content and ready for the next hurdle. I count myself fortunate to have selected your services.

Thank you for your excellent service, from your first visit to all the phone calls made to different members of the team, to the final removals. You'll have all been very friendly and helpful, and as for your team (we had Sam Stu and Scott) they were polite, friendly and above all hard working.. I Would highly recommend you and your team.

In November 2012, Mrs T J said about Shropshire Foot Specialists: Chiropodist Telford
I visited Mr Dowdeswell, Telford Podiatrist in June after months of foot pain and physiotherapy and doctors appointments. I was due to have an injection for a Morton’s Neuroma the following week with the NHS Physiotherapist. Steven was horrified!!! He carried out several tests and a detailed history and ignored the fact that two X Rays were negative for Fractures at the hospital. I was unsure initially as it did not seem possible that the NHS had got it so wrong. Steven was so adamant to get me walking again that he wrote immediately to my G.P and insisted on an immediate referral to a Private Surgeon (I have medical cover). The surgeon had received a letter from Telford Foot Specialists, detailing that an MRI or Bone Scan were required. The results came back that I had fractured my foot in 3 places. After the event it seemed so very obvious. Steven organised and chased this for little recompense as he could not directly help me, I am very grateful and obviously recommend him.
