Book an AppointmentLooking for a podiatrist covered by private health insurance?
If you hold private medical insurance with Bupa, Bupa Global, Aviva, WPA, Vitality, Simply Health, Health Shield, Healix or Westfield, your podiatry treatment at Flawless Feet can often be claimed through your policy. We are a recognised provider at our London clinics in Sydenham, Covent Garden and Croydon — and if you are insured with another company, just ask and we will help you check your cover.
How it works
Call your insurer before your appointment for an authorisation number, and check how much your policy excess could be.
Book online or by phone at our Sydenham, Covent Garden or Croydon clinics.
Bring your authorisation number and any GP/consultant referral details with you.
Where possible we invoice your insurer directly — otherwise we give you a full receipt to send to them.
Good to know: medical devices such as orthotics, and medication, are generally not covered (some international insurers may cover some of these costs); a GP/consultant referral may be required; and if your insurer does not settle the fees for any reason, you will be responsible for payment. If you cannot provide an authorisation number before treatment, you will need to pay the fees and claim them back later.
