We don't guess — we diagnose
Five specialist services. One Dublin clinic. Every recommendation is guided by what we find during your assessment — not by guesswork.
Diagnostic Injury Assessment
Specialist injury assessment with on-site MSK diagnostic ultrasound. The flagship appointment for acute injury, chronic pain, or any condition needing a definitive diagnosis.
Orthotic Assessment
Focused biomechanical assessment with precision 3D scan. For patients who want to know if custom orthotics are right for them — without an injury context.
Custom 3D-Printed Orthotics
Bespoke orthotics designed and manufactured at Réalta Labs — Paul McMullan's own lab. Formlabs SLS, ±0.1mm precision, PA11 bio-nylon. Not a third-party lab.
Nail Surgery
Permanent solution for ingrown toenails — partial or total nail avulsion with phenolisation under local anaesthetic. 98% success rate at our Belfast clinic.
Verruca Treatment (Swift)
Swift microwave therapy — fast, evidence-based verruca treatment. No dressings, no liquid nitrogen, no acid. Walk out normally after each session.
No GP referral required · Booking via Cliniko
Common foot, ankle and lower limb conditions
Specialist diagnosis and treatment for the most common reasons patients book with us in Dublin. Each guide explains how we confirm the diagnosis and what the treatment pathway looks like.
Heel pain (plantar fasciitis)
Sharp pain in the underside of the heel — worse with the first steps in the morning. Confirmed via on-site MSK ultrasound.
Read the guideAchilles pain & tendinopathy
Pain or stiffness at the back of the ankle. Ultrasound differentiates mid-portion vs insertional — each needs different treatment.
Read the guideMorton's neuroma
Burning forefoot pain or a 'pebble in the shoe' sensation between the toes. Confirmed directly on ultrasound.
Read the guideForefoot pain (metatarsalgia)
Ball-of-foot pain has several causes — capsulitis, neuroma, stress reaction. The right diagnosis dictates the treatment.
Read the guideStress fractures & foot injury
Bone-stress injuries from repetitive load. Specialist clinical assessment with MRI referral pathway where needed.
Read the guideIngrown toenail
Conservative care for early presentations. Permanent surgical correction with phenolisation for recurrent cases — 98% success rate.
Read the guideVerrucas
Modern Swift microwave therapy. Fast, evidence-based, no dressings, no downtime. Walk out normally after each session.
Read the guideClinical precision, not guesswork
Too often, patients receive treatment based on assumptions rather than evidence. Heel pain isn't always plantar fasciitis. Achilles pain isn't always tendinopathy. Knee pain doesn't always originate in the knee.
Accurate diagnosis dictates which treatment options are most suitable. Orthotics won't help a condition that requires injection therapy. We treat the cause, not just the symptoms.
