TREATING EVERY BODY LIKE A CHAMPION SINCE 2005
Whether an elite athlete, a weekend warrior, or an active individual, a foot or leg injury can really set you back physically and mentally. Our highly experienced team of sports podiatrists are dedicated to getting you back to sport, gym, work, travel and beyond with better knowledge, strength, function and performance. We use modern assessment methods to deconstruct your injury, communicate your diagnosis and formulate your treatment program. We blend effective short term pain relief such as strapping and massage with long-term resolution strategies including strengthening and stretching programs, customised orthotic prescriptions and footwear advice. We are located within five highly regarded sports medicine centres and have an extensive professional network for when a multidisciplinary approach is required. We are proudly the team Podiatrists for Penrith Panthers NRL and NSW Swifts Netball and are highly skilled in the management of heel pain, knee pain, Achilles tendonitis and osteoarthritis.
FOUR CONVENIENT SYDNEY LOCATIONS:
- COVID 19 UPDATE -
As Podiatry is currently on the essential services list, we would like to assure our patients that we are still open for business. We have strict policies and procedures in all our clinics that follow the Health Authority guidelines to help prevent infection and prevent the spread of the virus. We wish to emphasise that all of the clinics are still open for business for other health and medical services including Sports Medicine and Physiotherapy.
“We are lucky to do what we love, every day. No two injuries are the same, nor do they usually follow a textbook presentation, so we pride ourselves on drawing on our extensive experience as well as thinking outside the square to resolve complex cases. We are passionate about actively listening to our patients history, concerns and goals, and constructing a suitable management plan. Our Podiatry degrees provided the theory, however our unique perspective is a result of our experience working within large multi-disciplinary environments for over a decade, allowing us to develop our own contemporary methods of assessment and management.
We are dedicated to providing an exceptional experience for every patient by delivering friendly communication, above-and-beyond service and outstanding outcomes.”

OUR CLINICAL PHILOSOPHY
Our clinical ethos moves beyond the absence of pain. Wherever possible, we strive to keep our patients active whilst we undertake injury management and our long-term goals often include postural improvement, technique coaching and exercise load education to prevent future problems and enhance body mechanics. We are passionate about empowering our community with the knowledge and tools to move, feel and exercise better.
OUR ORTHOTIC philosophy.
We believe foot pronation ("rolling in") is a necessary component of foot function to enhance shock absorption and allow soft tissue structures to move through a normal range of movement. For that reason, it is very rare that we prescribe hard orthotics that block pronation altogether. Our customised orthotics are made from a flexible shell, allowing the foot to move within a normal range of motion to promote natural shock absorption, pain relief and long-term biomechanical benefit.
Our orthotics are manufactured using technologically-advanced 3D printing system to ensure the highest degree of prescription accuracy.
Our Perfect Match Promise
We have spent hundreds of hours recruiting and educating each of our team members to ensure you have an experience worth raving about, no matter who you see. If you don’t connect with your Podiatrist after your first session, we’ll pair you with a new practitioner and your next consult fee will be on the house*. (*T&C’s Apply)
