FAQs
Is it worth seeing a podiatrist?
Podiatrists are specialists in diagnosing and treating foot and leg conditions, with three years of focused training in this area. If you're experiencing any issues with your feet or legs, a podiatrist is often the best place to start.
Many patients come to us after seeing GPs, consultants, physiotherapists, and other therapists—often without finding relief. We have a strong track record of resolving problems that others haven’t been able to. That’s why we believe seeing a podiatrist is well worth it.
How do I pick the right podiatrist for my condition?
Our friendly reception team will ask you some brief initial questions to work out who it’s best for you to see. Once you’re at that first appointment our expertly trained clinicians will decide who is best to provide any ongoing treatment.
What can I expect at my appointment?
We have a collaborative approach to consultations. We listen, ask questions and carry out a thorough assessment before providing an accurate diagnosis and a custom treatment plan.
How long are the appointments?
You can expect a standard appointment to be 30 minutes. Ingrown nail procedures can be longer, up to 90 minutes.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes! We have a limited number of patients we have the time to see per day, and same-day appointments are rarely available. Any cancellations for the day are first offered to those on our waiting list before being made publicly available.
If no appointments are available within your timeframe on our online booking platform, please call us to join the cancellation list.
Will my treatment be covered by ACC?
As an ACC accredited practive, a proportion of your costs will be covered. Additionally, ACC may cover the full cost of the provision of orthotics & footwear support related to your injury.
Can a podiatrist start an ACC claim for a new injury?
Yes, we can lodge an ACC claim on your behalf. We assess your injury, determine if it's likely caused by an accident, and register an ACC claim for you.
What if I already have an existing ACC claim for my injury?
If you already have an ACC claim number for the injury, please bring that information with you for your appointment.
Can podiatrists refer to other medical services?
Yes, we can refer for X-Ray & ultrasound to aid in our diagnosis. We can also refer to sports doctors, orthopaedic specialists and other medical specialists.
What is the cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please let us know by 4pm the day before. Late cancellations or missed appointments may incur a $65 fee. Thank you for your understanding.
