Circle Podiatry was founded in September 2000 by Tina & Peter Allton. Peter, having been practicing in the NHS for some 13 years previously has always pursued excellence to ensure that his patients receive the best of treatment outcomes. Together they have led their team to win no fewer than 12 business awards since 2008.
Peter is a qualified Podiatrist with over 30 years clinical experience. He is also the published author of the book Undefeeted by Diabetes. Tina is a qualified educational psychologist and has been managing the clinic since 2005 together with Peter and later in 2011, Oxted Podiatry Center.
Peter and Tina’s true passion in life was born out of some life challenges that led to them committing to giving back to the world. These challenges included Peter’s diagnosis with type 2 diabetes followed by their 11 year old daughter’s diagnosis with Type 1 diabetes in. Their first hand experience of the disease coupled with their professional experience of just how devastating it can be to a person’s feet, led them to a deep conviction that it was not acceptable that 1 person every 20 seconds was undergoing a lower limb amputation as a direct result of diabetes.
Their passion to help people particularly with diabetes is delivered via the award winning Not for Profit organisation called Undefeeted and via Peter hosting 2 weekly radio shows on UK health radio
