About The Foot Nurse
Hi! I'm Dawn, I have been a nurse for 30 years, in varied fields. While working in hospice I found that many of my patients had difficulty in caring for their own feet which resulted in very thick, elongated toenails. This often caused pain especially wearing some shoes. Like many patients, family members and nurses, I felt uncomfortable trying to cut these toenails.
After contacting every podiatrist and other resource I could think of, I just couldn't find anyone to help clients that couldn't get out to the podiatrist anymore. Frustration led to further research, and I finally found a solution. I became a Certified Foot Care Specialist. Now I am here to help you!

How Do I Pay?
Is this covered by insurance?
How do I pay?
I am able to accept Venmo, CashApp, and PayPal.
Unfortunately this is not a covered service by Medicare or other insurance agency's. To use that benefit, you will need to go to the podiatrist's office. I would be happy to help you find a podiatrist in your area.
