About The Foot Surgery Centre

The Foot Surgery Centre offers foot consultations and foot treatments for patients with foot related problems that may require podiatric or foot surgery in London and Surrey.

The Foot Surgery Centre practises at the following locations:

The Foot Surgery Centre was founded by Ernest Barlow-Kearsley, Consultant Podiatric Surgeon, BSc (Hons) FCPodS and registered with the Health Professions Council Member of the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists.

Mr Barlow-Kearsley trained as Podiatrist in South Africa where he obtained his undergraduate Higher National Diploma in Podiatric Medicine.

In 1993 he emigrated to the UK and in 1996 he was awarded a BSc (Hons) in Podiatric Studies from Brighton University.

In 2001 he was awarded his Fellowship in Podiatric Surgery (FCPodS) after which he completed his 3 year post fellowship training in podiatric surgery in 2004 whilst working in a number of locations; Doncaster West PCT (3 years), Homerton University NHS Trust (1 year) and Erewash NHS PCT (6 months).

During this time he gained valuable experience working both in acute and community based podiatric surgical centres. This allowed him to apply for his Certificate of Completion in Surgical Training (CCST) from the Faculty of Podiatric Surgery which was duly awarded in 2004.

Mr Barlow-Kearsley is currently employed both within the NHS and in private practice with the Foot Surgery Centre. He holds a Consultant post at The Charing Cross Hospital employed by Hammersmith and Fulham NHS PCT. In addition he is employed by Mid Sussex NHS PCT as an Associate Specialist in Podiatric Surgery as part of the newly formed Mid Sussex Musculoskeletal Service.

The Foot Surgery Centre has been granted private patient privileges within the Riverside Wing at the The Charing Cross Hospital where Mr Barlow-Kearsley is able to perform elective day case surgery in the newly refurbished day surgery unit.
