Pino – Experienced Italian Podologist with Over 20 Years of Practice
Born and raised in Pozzuoli, a coastal town near Naples, Italy. He began his career in podology after earning a degree in Foot Health Sciences (Podology) from the Second University of Naples in 2004.
Over the years, he has worked in various healthcare environments, gaining extensive experience—most notably during his 16-year tenure at Centro Medico Chirurgico (CMC), a multidisciplinary medical center. There, he collaborated closely with physicians from multiple specialties and treated a broad spectrum of foot-related conditions, including:
Nail disorders (thickened, fungal, or damaged nails)
Ingrown toenails (both invasive and non-invasive treatments)
Plantar warts, calluses, and hyperkeratosis
Diabetic and geriatric foot care
Postural and balance-related foot issues (podo-posturology)
Pino combines solid medical training, practical experience, and a patient-centered philosophy to provide reliable, compassionate, and professional foot care.
Since 2023, he has been collaborating with Andrea’s Foot Care and Nails, founded by Andrea Whitcomb-May. This partnership brings together shared values and complementary expertise, with a particular focus on foot care and pedicure techniques inspired by the German podology tradition. Together, they are committed to offering the highest standards in both clinical and aesthetic foot treatments.
