  • I have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos and really recommend Liam. I have complex chronic issues and Liam has really helped me. I also recommend Michael for podiatry - he helped get rid of my awful neuroma pain without needing injections.I really love how easy it is to book and change appointments online even if you’re paying with insurance. The reception team are always really helpful and friendly

  • I live close to White Hart Lane and found the clinic while googling for help with my feet. Michael Hooper was very helpful, explained what was happening, and he did a temporary fix on an ingrowing toenail but he said he thought it would probably need surgery. Indeed it did, and within hours of lockdown in March I plucked up courage and Michael operated. The prospect was really scary but he talked me through the whole procedure which apart from the injection was pain free. In the first days of lockdown I was even going on long walks (what else was there to do?) and did not have anything more than minor discomfort. Over the following week he monitored it on line, showing proper care and attention. The pain that caused the original problem is now a dim and distant memory. I have had a couple of other reasons to consult Mchael and he has been easily available and endlessly helpful. I couldn't recommend his services at White Hart Clinic more highly.

  • My care was provide by Michael Hooper. I was suffering from leg and knee issues following a cycling accident several years ago. My consultant recommended Micheal to me.Michael provided outstanding care. He made a completely accurate initial diagnosis, and supervised the creation and fitting of my insoles. Michael later tried several tiny adjustments to absolutely perfect the fitting, but it transpired that his initial fitting was already perfect, so they weren’t needed. But I really appreciated his focus in making sure I had the best possible outcome.If I ever need care in the future I will return to Michael without hesitation.
