Accessible page design
18px minimum text, 4.5:1 contrast, large buttons, and layouts that still work at 200% zoom.
The Problem
Patients Squint at Your Site, Then Call
It shows up on the phone lines. Patients with poor eyesight or unsteady hands give up on your site and call the front desk instead.
01 · Faint text
Light gray text is hard to read for older patients.
Large body text with strong contrast reads easily on any phone.
02 · Tiny menu
The menu hides behind a tiny icon.
Big, well-spaced buttons and a phone number sit on every screen.
03 · Timed-out forms
The booking form times out halfway through.
A caregiver can book for a parent in one short form.
04 · Clinical terms
Your foot problem pages use terms patients don't search for.
Heel pain, bunions, and diabetic foot problems get explained in plain words.
A 72-year-old with diabetes notices a sore on their foot and asks their daughter to find a podiatrist. Your site's light gray text is hard to read, the menu hides behind a tiny icon, and the booking form times out halfway through. So the daughter calls, gets voicemail, and books elsewhere. Your staff spend mornings returning calls a readable site would have handled. And your foot problem pages use terms your patients don't search for.
We start with how your patients read, tap, and book. Body text runs 18px or larger with strong contrast, buttons are big and spaced apart, and the phone number sits on every screen. Plain-language pages explain heel pain, bunions, and diabetic foot care. Booking and intake let a caregiver finish for a parent, through a vendor that signs a BAA. Patients book online instead of leaving voicemails.
Readable on any phone

Foot problems in plain words
Heel pain, bunions, ingrown toenails, and diabetic foot care explained the way patients search.
Booking a caregiver can finish

Our Podiatry Website Process
From Accessibility Plan to Booked Foot Visits in Five Steps
You review the accessibility plan, the page content, and a staging site you can test yourself. Nothing launches until you've tried it on your own phone.
You start with a free review of your current site on the phones and screen sizes your patients use. You leave with an accessibility plan, a list of foot problems to cover, and a fixed-price proposal.
What's Included
What You Get With Podiatrist Website Design

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built accessible sites and booking apps for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Podiatry Practices Trust Us With Their Websites
Podiatry sites serve patients who may see poorly, move slowly, or book through a family member. These habits keep every one of them in mind.
Tested with real assistive tech
We check every page with a keyboard, a screen reader, and 200% zoom before launch. Automated scanners catch some problems, and people catch the rest.
Big type is the default
Body text starts at 18px, and nothing important hides in light gray. Your patients read every page without reaching for their reading glasses.
Caregivers are welcome
Adult children often book for a parent. Every form we build lets them do that openly, without pretending to be the patient.
Plain words over jargon
Your pages say heel pain before plantar fasciitis. Patients find their problem in the words they actually use, and the medical term follows.
Honest advice about what you need
If fixing contrast, text size, and your booking link would solve most calls, we'll tell you before we quote. A full rebuild can wait.
You own everything we build
Your domain, hosting, forms, and patient education pages belong to your practice from day one. You keep every file if you change agencies.

Good fit
Solo podiatrists and small practices
Your patients skew older, and many call because your site's small gray text is hard to read on a phone.
Practices focused on diabetic foot care
You run a diabetic foot program, and patients or their caregivers need to book checkups without calling three times.
Foot and ankle groups with several doctors
Your doctors split sports injuries, bunion surgery, and wound care, and each one needs a booking link that routes correctly.
Practices that accept Medicaid
You receive HHS funding, and the Section 504 rule sets a May 2027 or May 2028 deadline for accessible websites.
Agencies with podiatry clients
You run campaigns for foot care practices and want a podiatric physician website design partner who builds accessible sites under your brand.
Not a fit
Budget under $1,000
Your budget is under $1,000. A podiatry template service fits until you need accessible booking and caregiver-friendly forms.
Orthopedic surgeon group
You run a multi-surgeon orthopedic group. Our orthopedic page covers surgeon directories and injury triage.
Online orthotics store
You sell orthotics and footwear online more than you see patients. Our E-commerce Development service fits that store better.
Accessibility fixes only
You only need an accessibility audit and fixes on your current site. Our ADA Website Compliance Services page covers that without a redesign.

Saimul IslamFounder & CEO, DeveloperLookStill have questions?
Send a message or book a call with the team.
Your podiatry site starts at $1,000 for up to 8 pages, 5 plain-language condition pages, and an accessible build. The Foot Care Patient Site costs $2,250 and adds connected scheduling, caregiver-friendly intake, and an insurance page. Groups with 2 to 4 offices start at $4,450.
Most podiatry sites launch in 4 to 10 weeks. A starter site takes 4 to 5 weeks, a full condition library with connected scheduling takes 6 to 7, and multi-office builds take 8 to 10. Writing and approving patient education with your doctors usually sets the pace.
They publish a clear page for each condition and tie it to local search. Each page explains symptoms in plain words, lists the treatments your doctors offer, and ends with a booking link and a phone number. Google Business Profile services, location pages, and patient reviews help nearby searchers reach those pages.
You connect the scheduling tool your EHR already offers instead of adding a separate calendar. ModMed and athenahealth both offer patient self-scheduling, and Zocdoc's Website Scheduling puts a Book Online button on your site that can schedule into many EHRs. Good foot and ankle clinic website design keeps that button and your phone number on every page.
Pages that answer your patients' real questions are the strongest starting point. Start with heel pain, bunions, ingrown toenails, and diabetic foot care: what it feels like, when to see a podiatrist, and what the first visit involves. We track bookings by page, without health details, so you expand what works.
You build to WCAG 2.1 AA, then test the way your patients use the site. That means body text of 18px or larger, text contrast of at least 4.5:1, large buttons with space between them, and full keyboard and screen reader support. Forms stay short and let a caregiver fill them in for a parent.
It applies if your practice receives HHS federal funding, such as Medicaid payments. The rule requires WCAG 2.1 AA for your website by May 11, 2027 with 15 or more employees, or May 10, 2028 with fewer. Your attorney can confirm coverage, and we build to that standard either way.
Yes, when the booking and intake flow asks who is filling it in. We add a booking-for-someone-else option that collects the caregiver's contact details and the patient's, and keeps both on the record your staff see. Everything runs through a vendor that signs a BAA.
Your practice owns the domain, hosting, scheduling links, and every form account. We set all of it up under your practice's name, then pass you full admin access at launch. Switch agencies later, and the code, the design files, and your patient education pages go with you.
Support covers 30 days on the starter site, 60 on the patient site, and 90 on group builds. We fix issues, recheck accessibility after content changes, and make small edits such as a new foot condition page. After that window, you can buy changes as needed or join a monthly care plan.
