Nikita is amazing. She is not only knowledgeable and passionate about podiatry but she is also clinical and thorough in her work. She is sympathetic and provides a detailed outline of the problem and prognosis. After suffering unbearable pain due to ingrown toe nails, I found a permanent solution in her and I will forever be grateful for her service. I had surgery performed on both my big toes to remove ingrown toe nails and she did it beautifully and offered post op support.

Nikita is professional and dedicated. She is also patient and goes out of her way to explain the tests and outcomes. I have enjoyed interacting with her during my treatment, as well as my daughter's treatment.

Khanyisile MhlangaPatient

My mother and I visited PODMED four months ago and Nikita offered an amazing experience that left both of us motivated, and 100% convinced that my feet will get back to normal. I have seen a huge improvement so far, thanks to her excellent professionalism, love, care and use of high tech equipment. How I wish many people with feet problems could know about her and get help!!

Bridget MolisePatient

So much info and laughter. What a great experience. I can not wait for my orthotics and to return to such a professional doctor. Learnt so much about my feet and was well taken care of. The only shame is that there is not a 6th star... Like a super rating.

Dr Nikita saw my almost 4 year old daughter and did an amazing job of making her comfortable with the tests, and explained everything really well to us. She is a fantastic podiatrist. Her receptionist is just as friendly and lovely.

Shai FriedlandPatient

Nikita is an amazing podiatrist. She is highly qualified and extremely knowledgeable about her field, yet super down to earth which made me feel at ease. She offers professional service, and she's open a bit later which is great for busy professionals. I had laser done and I could see the difference instantly. Will definitely be back!
