Podiatry is the health profession dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and prevention of medical and surgical conditions of the foot and lower limb. In Queensland podiatrists must be registered with the podiatrist's registration board. To be eligible for registration you must have completed a four year degree in podiatry at the Queensland University of Technology or equivalent.
No. Anyone can visit a podiatrist although many of our patients have been referred by their general practitioner, physiotherapist, chiropractor or other allied health care practitioner. However, if you are under the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA), WorkCover or Enhanced Primary Care program (EPC) you will need a referral from your doctor.
Yes, especially if your child trips over a lot complains of sore feet, knee pain or leg pain after sport, or complains that their shoes hurt. These are all signs that something is not right and the child should be professionally assessed by a podiatrist before the problem becomes worse.
Yes, but only if you are referred by your doctor under the Enhanced Primary Care Programme (EPC). For those of you who are not eligible for the Enhanced Primary Care Programme, we can process your private health fund rebates through our HICAPS system.
Foot orthoses are inserts for the shoes that are designed to support, align, or improve the function of the foot. They are also commonly referred to as orthotics. Orthoses fit comfortably inside your shoes.
Our podiatrists may prescribe orthoses for your particular foot problem after a comprehensive assessment. They will consider the way your body moves (your biomechanics), your footwear, your occupational and lifestyle environment. Orthoses provide long-term solutions in the treatment and prevention of corns, calluses and ulceration by redistributing the pressure of the body's weight on the feet. Orthoses also help with the rehabilitation of acute and chronic foot conditions such as tendinosis.
