Meet The Team
Afdha Djehafar Aly
BSc (Hons) MCpod.
HCPC registered,
Principal Podiatrist
I am Afdha Aly, your podiatrist/chiropodist at Longwood Foot Clinic. I am a member of the College of Podiatry and a HCPC registered podiatrist. I graduated from University of East London in 2012 with a Bachelor of science honours degree in podiatric medicine. Following graduation, I moved to Scotland to live with my husband and started working in a private podiatry practice north east of the border for a few years before relocating to London in 2018.
Why did I choose podiatry?
I was drawn towards a career in healthcare because as I wanted to make a positive impact every single day on people’s lives and I believe this is what makes me a great practitioner. I really enjoy working as a podiatrist especially as I am continually learning new techniques as the profession evolves and enjoy watching my patient’s walk out with a smile on their faces.
What do I do away from the surgery?
When I am not working, I love nothing more than spending time with my family. I have two beautiful daughters, Zaara and Nuha. I also love gardening and growing my own vegetables so always happy to chat with other fond gardeners and gain any tips and tricks!

Michele Harris
Receptionist
My name is Michele and I’ve been working with Afdha since August 2020. I joined the practise with 14 years behind me of recruiting students for hospitality roles in fantastic locations within the United States, placing many of these students in the most magical place on earth, Walt Disney World. When I’m not working my favourite thing to do is to spend time with my daughters and grandson. I love preparing food for my family and its a joy to be round one table together. That said, same people, eating out is also a delight, as we all do love a nice restaurant trip too.
