Matt Jessop

Podiatrist / Chiropodist

Hi, I’m Matt, a Podiatrist here at Align Healthcare Clinic. I’m committed to providing a friendly, welcoming service, focused on addressing all of your foot care needs.

I was born in Southport but spent part of my childhood in Greece, where my family ran a Greek restaurant in the village of Kontokali on the island of Corfu. It’s there that I developed my passion for the outdoors; beach walks, sea swimming, sailing, and surfing. When the weather is good in the UK, you’ll find me enjoying a picnic on the beach or paddle boarding in the sea.

My journey into podiatry stems from a deep desire to help people. After completing my studies at the University of Salford, where I earned a First-Class Honours degree in Podiatry, I quickly realised the transformative impact that podiatric care can have on a person’s quality of life. I find particular satisfaction in helping patients manage biomechanical pain, such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon issues, and even knee or lower back pain.

Alongside my role at Align Healthcare Clinic, I work as an NHS podiatrist in West Lancashire, treating a diverse range of foot and ankle problems. Here at Align Healthcare, I focus on providing routine care; everything from nail care and hard skin/corn removal to comprehensive biomechanical assessments aimed at helping patients live pain-free.

As a podiatrist, my goal is always to create a relaxed, welcoming environment where each patient’s individual needs are listened to and addressed. I take pride in offering tailored treatment plans that focus on long-term solutions and comfort.

Whether you’re dealing with a specific issue or simply looking to maintain healthy feet, I’m here to help you live without foot pain and enjoy life to the fullest.
