Sam San

I’m a Specialist MSK Podiatrist with a strong background in NHS care, including working closely with surgical and multidisciplinary teams to assess, diagnose, and treat complex lower limb conditions. I have a particular interest in sports injuries and helping people stay active, whether you’re training for a marathon, getting back into fitness, or simply trying to walk pain-free again.

I’ve supported athletes at some of the most demanding events in the world, including the Marathon des Sables ultramarathon in the Sahara desert and the London Marathon, where I’ve helped runners manage acute injuries and stay on track to achieve their goals.

Outside of work, I hold a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which gives me insight into the physical demands of combat sports and the related injuries – especially to the feet, ankles, and knees.

Whether you’re dealing with heel pain, tendon issues, biomechanical concerns, or recovering from a sports injury, I use a holistic and evidence-based approach to get you back to doing what you love.

I believe in empowering patients through education, clear treatment plans, and practical advice tailored to your lifestyle. From rehabilitation and orthotic therapy to injury prevention strategies, my goal is to help you move better, recover faster, and stay active long term – whether on the mats, the trails, or just in everyday life.
