Quotes from the team

Sarah Howler, Podiatrist — 

I’ve always been the family’s go-to nail trimmer (though I didn’t realise it was a paid job until much later). In 2020, after over 15 years in retail management, the pandemic led to redundancy, and I took a leap of faith, enrolling as a mature student in Podiatry at the University of Huddersfield.

I chose podiatry because of its diverse pathways, from musculoskeletal care to surgery and private practice. I earned my bachelor’s degree with honours in 2023 and have been a band 5 podiatrist with the Trust for just over a year, focusing on training and mentorship in Rheumatology.

I love my supportive team, continuous learning, and the Trust’s commitment to professional development. It's rewarding to make a difference in patients' lives, with the added bonus of flexible hours that fit perfectly around my life.
