✔️ Topical treatment selection and patient management
✔️ The application of red light therapy for fungal nails

Led by experienced consultant podiatrist Gaynor Wooldridge, this practical course combines the latest clinical knowledge with live demonstrations and hands-on learning, giving you techniques that can be implemented immediately into practice. The course also includes guidance on when referral is appropriate, helping you deliver the highest standard of patient care.
