Frequently Asked Questions

What does a podiatrist do?

A podiatrist is a healthcare professional who diagnoses and treats conditions affecting the feet and lower limbs. This includes skin and nail issues, pain, injuries, and complications related to chronic illnesses like diabetes.

Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist?

You don’t need a referral for general appointments. However, if you’re accessing services via Medicare, DVA, or WorkCover, a referral may be required.

Can you provide home visits or attend aged care homes?

Yes. Our podiatrists offer mobile services and can treat you at home, in a care facility, or within the community, depending on your needs.

Is podiatry covered under NDIS or Home Care Packages?

Absolutely. We work with clients under both programs and can assist with documentation and reporting as needed.

How often should I see a podiatrist if I have diabetes?

It’s generally recommended to have a diabetic foot assessment every 3–6 months. Our podiatrists will advise a frequency based on your individual risk level and foot health.
