History of Foot-forward
After graduating the London Foot Hospital, Lenia Papadopoullou-Maliotou returned to Cyprus and set up a podiatry practice in Nicosia in 1969. At that time people were unaware of the existence of this profession and this made the beginning of Lenia’s career very difficult. She had put much effort in informing the medical professions in length of the scope of podiatry. Gradually people valued the benefit they could have and the practice attained a momentum. By 1980 she moved already to new premises built and decorated for the current needs of the practice and which also could host one more podiatrist. In 1994 Lenia was joined by her daughter Diamanto Maliotou, podiatrist graduated from University of Brighton and the practice started evolving in different directions. In 2004 Foot-forward moved in their new premises in Acropolis area. New building new laboratories. Bigger space. In 2007, Despina Theodorou, a podiatrist graduated from University of Southampton joined in and the podiatry team got bigger.
