What is Podiatry?
Podiatry is an important area of allied health that is focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing conditions of the feet, ankles, and lower limbs. Foot doctors, also known as podiatrists, are highly qualified healthcare professionals who use a variety of methods, including medical, surgical, and rehabilitative techniques, to address foot and ankle problems.
Podiatrists are responsible for treating patients of all ages, from children to the elderly, who have a range of medical conditions, including diabetes, sports injuries, and arthritis. Their work is vital in helping people maintain their independence, mobility, and overall quality of life. By providing tailored care, advice, and treatment, podiatrists can prevent further complications and promote the overall health and well-being of their patients.
What Can I Expect at my First Podiatry Appointment?
When you first see a podiatrist, they will conduct a comprehensive examination of your foot and ankle, including a gait analysis and a review of your medical history. Based on your symptoms and evaluation, our podiatrists will develop a customised treatment plan that incorporates advanced techniques like orthotics, dry needling, shockwave therapy, and rehabilitation exercise programs to meet your unique needs.
