Accessibility & LanguageJoe Egan
Independent Private Practitioner
Since Graduating from NUI Galway in 2013 with a BSc (Hons) Degree in Podiatry I went on to work in Private practice in Co. Dublin. Whilst working in this practice, I had the opportunity to see a great deal of podiatric complications from paediatrics right thought to the elderly. I worked in clinics based in Dublin and Kildare, which also gave me the flexibility.
After some time, I opened a private practice of my own with a clinic based in Athlone, Co. Westmeath and another in Blackrock, Co. Dublin. Since then I have become self-employed which has led me in a new, exciting direction. I have found that my degree from NUI Galway has prepared me greatly in terms of experience, how to interact with my patients as well as providing me with an insight into business management during our fourth year. Moving forward I hope to take the knowledge I gained from NUI Galway and continue to implement it into my practice.
