Keeping our community on their feet through all stages of life
Our Services
A podiatry consultation will involve your podiatrist talking to you about your current concerns. This includes gaining an understanding about your overall health, in addition to a detailed history of your foot complaint.
We will determine the cause of your concern and establish a treatment plan that is appropriate for you. This may involve watching you walk, assessing your current footwear, seeing how your joints and muscles are moving, treating a skin lesion, applying padding or strapping.
Most foot problems are easily diagnosed and managed, however if further investigations are required we can refer you for x-ray, ultrasound or MRI and in complex cases we will coordinate and advise referrals to appropriate specialists.
Nail Care
We will diagnose and treat any of your toe nail concerns, including but not limited to: ingrown toe nails, thickened toe nails, and fungal toe nails.
We can also provide assistance with general toe nail cutting.
Callous, Corns & Cracked Heels
We diagnose and treat a variety of skin issues and provide advice on appropriate skincare to keep your feet healthy and looking and feeling great!
We stock Walkers creams; a professional skincare range that is Australian made and owned.
Custom Orthoses
Custom orthoses (shoe inserts) can be prescribed to reduce pain caused by poor foot posture in the feet, legs, knees, hips and back. Orthoses can enhance foot and lower limb function.
Prescription orthoses require a biomechanical assessment and gait analysis to ensure the most comfortable fit and optimal outcomes. We work closely with QOL, who are an Australian bespoke orthotic laboratory. They ensure the highest quality craftsmanship to provide the most optimal devices.
Prefabricated Orthoses & Paediatric Orthoses
We stock a large range of pre-fabricated orthoses which are available for immediate fit into your footwear.
We stock Gecko children’s orthotics for ages 1-9. Gecko are an Australian made prefabricated orthotic, great for hypermobile flat feet and other developmental issues.
Paediatric Podiatry
Growth and development issues can arise from the lower leg and feet throughout childhood which can cause pain.
Common conditions include: “feet rolling in”, in-toeing, out-toeing, toe-walking, curly toes, growing pains, heel pain, shin pain, knee pain, poor coordination, tripping and fatigue, ingrown toe nails and warts.
Its never too early to have your child’s feet assessed. Many paediatric conditions achieve better outcomes with treatment before your child begins walking.
Heel Pain, Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Spurs
We provide experienced clinical assessment to diagnose the cause of your pain to create an individualised treatment plan to get you on the move again. Many conditions of the feet and lower legs are caused by or exacerbated by an inherited faulty mechanical structure of the foot and/or poor footwear.
Treatment may include, footwear advice, strapping, exercises, and/or orthoses.

Foot pain can be debilitating. We take the time to assess, diagnose and treat the cause of the issue. Treatment may include, footwear advice, strapping, exercises, orthoses or temporary immobilisation.
Bunions, Hammer Toes & Arthritis
Whether they are soft tissue or bony, lumps and bumps on your feet will inevitably cause pain.
Often hereditary and exacerbated by footwear choices, bunions, hammer toes, and arthritis can be treated.
We can provide you with advice and treatment both surgical and non-surgical.
Ball of Foot Pain & Metatarsalgia
Nobody likes living with foot pain. Metatarsalgia is a common cause of foot complaints. The great news is that with proper diagnosis it is treatable and symptoms are often swiftly alleviated.
We provide expert clinical assessment to diagnose the cause of your metatarsalgia to create an individualised treatment plan to get you on the move again.
Achilles Tendonopathy, Bursitis, Shin Splints, Ankle Pain, Strains & Sprains, & Stress Fractures
When an injury lingers and the pain prevents you from leading an active life, it might be time to see your podiatrist! Proper diagnosis, treatment and care can result in faster return to activity. Treatment may include, footwear advice, strapping, exercises, heel lifts, orthoses or temporary immobilisation.
Diabetes & Neuro-Vascular Assessments
Regular foot checks and assessments are essential for people with Diabetes to decrease the risk of Diabetic foot ulcerations and associated morbidity and mortality.
We provide a detailed assessment including Doppler Ultrasound analysis for people with Diabetes or people at risk of peripheral vascular or neurological disease (decreased circulation and sensation to your feet).
