Mr Ian Drakard, BSc (Pod) HPC Registered Podiatrist
Ian graduated with an honours degree in Podiatry from the University of Northampton in 2007, and also works at The Norwich Osteopathic Clinic and Holt Foot Clinic.
Ian's special interests are biomechanics, orthotics and gait analysis and sports injuries. Orthotics are insoles which support or correct human function. They are used to align the bones in the foot to reduce stress on ligaments and muscles in the foot, and to improve gait and posture in the body as a whole.
