Hayes & Associates is a group of Podiatry Foot Clinics established by Donal Hayes in 1989. Over the past 20 years we have established five clinics in the Dublin City and greater Dublin area. All our Podiatrists are UK degree trained with a minimum qualification of a Batchelor of Science degree in Podiatric Medicare. Hayes & Associates is committed to continuous professional development with all the practioners undergoing courses in the latest developments in Podiatric Medicare. We are health professionals who are primarily concerned with the care of the feet and the lower limbs. Our Podiatrists deal with a variety of foot problems and complaints, ranging from the treatment of painful corns and callusous to advice on footwear, assesment of foot functions or minor surgical procedures.
Donal Hayes
I qualified from Glasgow Caledonian University in 1989 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Podiatric Medicine..
I returned to Ireland to establish the group of Hayes & Associates Podiatry Practices. On my return I began practice in Balbriggan and these clinics have now expanded to Drogheda, Skerries, Clondalkin and Inchicore.
I have hand picked an excellent team to work around me from the courteous and friendly reception staff who demonstrate incredible efficiency and empathy with our clients.
I also picked four highly qualified podiatrists to work alongside me who are not just excellent podiatrist but also demonstrate great people skills.
Since qualifying I believe it is very important to keep up to date with current podiatric developments and I attend several continuous development courses each year so that we can provide the latest therapies to our clients.
Katy Angeloni
I obtained my degree with distinction from Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh, in 2002 and continued on to do my honours degree. I worked for the N.H.S. in Scotland and the Isle of Man before joining Hayes & Associates in 2003.
I completed a diploma in Diabetic Management in 2005 which lead to the introduction of a H.S.E. pilot Diabetic Watch Scheme. This has now been running for four years and enables selected high risk patients to access essential education and treatment.
During my time in Ireland I have worked for the GAA Dublin team. While I work in all aspects of Podiatry including routine treatment, I have a particular interest and skill in nail surgery.
I most enjoy podopaediatrics which focuses on the treatment and correction of foot and lower limb problems in children. I find it incredibly rewarding to have the ability to make a difference to children’s quality of life which offer the simplest of treatments and education.

Amy Judge
Having qualified, with distinction in 2013, from the renowned school of Podiatry at Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh, I then made the decision to further my studies and obtain my honours degree. During this additional year, I covered a wide array of new subjects and developed a more in depth knowledge of podiatry.
As part of my 4 year training, I worked under the National Health Service in both clinic and hospital settings. It was during this time that I dealt with everything from nail surgery, diabetic wound care and biomechanics, to more conservative treatments such as managing nails, corns, callouses and fissures.
