Mark Brooksbank MSc, HCPC — Specialist MSK Podiatrist

About Mark

Mark Brooksbank is an experienced musculoskeletal (MSK) podiatric clinician with more than two decades of experience in both NHS and private healthcare settings, working across the UK and abroad. His clinical practice focuses on diagnosing and managing complex foot and ankle conditions through evidence-based care, advanced imaging techniques, and tailored treatment plans.

As a non-medical prescriber, Mark is qualified to provide a wide range of treatment options and holds the Certificate in Foot and Ankle Ultrasound from Bournemouth University and the Anglo-European College of Chiropractic (CASE accredited). He is also one of a small number of podiatrists to complete the Royal College of Podiatry’s theory and practical training in skin surgery, enabling him to perform procedures such as verrucae needling and nail surgery under local anaesthetic.

Mark routinely performs diagnostic ultrasound, ultrasound-guided injections, bespoke bracing, and custom-made orthotics. He also introduced shockwave therapy into his current clinic, using it with hundreds of patients and developing extensive expertise in its clinical applications and limitations.

A strong believer in evidence-based practice, Mark completed an MSc in Podiatry (Lower Limb Biomechanics) at the University of Huddersfield, graduating with merit overall and for his dissertation.

His commitment to professional development extends beyond clinical practice: Mark has mentored colleagues in diagnostic ultrasound and injection therapy, authored national and international publications, and delivered educational lectures to GPs and allied health professionals.
