Just an update. Foot pain pioneers seems to have gone tits up. Les Bailey can now be found here
w w w.thecliniconline.co.uk/1/about.html
Obviously only EMPLOYED by them, not owning it or owt because then there might be liability issues.
Its the same old Jazz. Free consultation, money back guarentee etc, etc.
Here's some fun things you can do within the law if you are grand or two down on the day and still suffering (like me).
Book a free consultation. Ask why your old orthotics did not work (as per the website) without mentioning where you got them, Enjoy 10 minutes of him unknowingly slagging himself off.
Ask if Dr Les Bailey is HPC registered. That, BTW is the government body which regulates health care professionals. (he's not, oddly enough.)
Ask what his professional training is (osteopathy) and ask why he is not still a member of THIER governing body.
Ask which University issued his doctorate. A clue, its in a very hot country, its not the UK and the PHd was done "long distance".
Write to rogue traders on watchdog. This is just up their street and if a few people write in you may get to see your hero on tele. I have.
Keep a buzz going on cyberspace so if anyone googles him they get to see your story as well as his advertising!
We'll probably never see our money but if we can spare others the same fate, and perhaps remind him that we won't just go away, its time well spent.
