Some things should never be left to chance. The health of your feet is one of them.
Care cannot be rushed. Precision cannot be abbreviated. And trust is not built with words, but with reliability, appointment after appointment, year after year.
Hottinger Podologie is committed to this understanding. We see podiatry as a medical craft: every treatment begins with a careful assessment, follows a clear concept and does not end at the practice door, but with aftercare that lasts. At Zeltweg 74, between Kreuzplatz and Kunsthaus, you will find the calm of a house where time is taken seriously.
A craft demands time. We take it, for every single step.
Every movement has a reason. We work diagnosis-led, with a steady hand and the highest standard of hygiene, without exception.
Your concerns stay within our rooms. We cultivate the reserve you may rightly expect from a Zurich house.
Healthy feet are not an event but a path. We walk it with you, with sensible intervals and a concept that lasts for years.
From the comprehensive podiatry treatment to the targeted care of individual complaints, every service follows the same principle: understand first, then treat.
Skin and nails in one hand: comprehensive care in which nothing is left to chance. Gentle, thorough and tailored to your feet.
Where pressure builds, the skin defends itself. We reduce it in a controlled, measured way, and address the cause so the relief lasts.
Cracked heels hurt with every step. Through careful smoothing and targeted skin repair, we give the skin its resilience back.
Small in size, great in effect. We treat with pinpoint accuracy, relieve the affected area and take preventive measures so the pain does not return.
An ingrown toenail calls for experience and a delicate touch. We provide gentle relief; for recurring cases we use the orthonyxia bracing technique.
The best treatment is the one that never becomes necessary. We advise you on care, footwear and sensible intervals, personally and to the point.
Tap the area that concerns you: see at once what may be behind it, and book your appointment with one click.
Not every change in a nail is a fungus, and not every fungus calls for the same answer. That is why everything here begins with an honest, careful assessment.
On that basis we build a concept with clear stages: regular podiatry care, a well-considered hygiene plan and, where the findings suggest it, modern laser therapy as a precise element of the whole.
We tell you openly what makes sense. And just as openly what does not.
Plantar warts are stubborn, and they are often mistaken for corns or taken seriously too late. We first clarify the diagnosis, then follow a structured course with Swift® microwave therapy: as a rule three to four treatments are needed, depending on complexity and severity, and a session rarely takes longer than fifteen minutes.
The pleasant part: after the treatment there are no dressings, no ointments, no preparations. You leave as you came. The response rates of the procedure are gratifyingly high, as they are with our nail fungus laser therapy.
And as always: regular podiatry care supports the course of treatment. We will tell you honestly which rhythm makes sense for you.
Pain has many faces: joint complaints, arthrosis and arthritis, haematomas, delayed wound healing or discomfort after procedures. We address them with two modern, non-invasive methods.
Laserneedle therapy works with pinpoint precision at depth; LED photobiomodulation with HEALITE II supports wound healing, regeneration and nail growth, gently, painlessly and with no downtime.
We use both methods after careful assessment, also alongside podiatry treatment and for prevention.
You do not care for a foot for today, but for every step still to come.
Angelika Winklbauer stands for what cannot be delegated: the calm, experienced hand. Her path led through acute and intensive-care medicine into podiatry, a background you sense whenever sensitive feet and demanding skin and nail conditions are concerned.
Her standard is non-negotiable: precise, uncompromising in hygiene, and with a gentleness that has kept patients loyal for years.
Nicola Mössner runs the house with an eye for the whole: clear procedures, reliable standards and an atmosphere in which you know you are in good hands.
His field is the skin: as a specialist in skin treatments, skin conditions and wound care, he combines structured care concepts with laser-based and light-based therapies, guided by expertise and the responsibility that modern methods demand.
Because in our house, progress only has a place when it serves the patient.
Between Kreuzplatz and Kunsthaus, in the heart of Hottingen.
