Podiatry Questions
Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist?
No referral is needed. You can book an appointment directly with us at any time.
What does a podiatrist do?
Podiatrists diagnose and treat conditions affecting the feet, ankles, and lower limbs. This includes pain, skin and nail issues, sports injuries, and long-term conditions like diabetes.
Are you ACC registered?
Yes, we are ACC-contracted. If your foot or leg injury happened as a result of an accident, you may be eligible for subsidised treatment.
Do you treat children?
Absolutely. We see children of all ages for issues like in-toeing, flat feet, growth pains, and sports injuries.
