No. A referral is not required unless you are a DVA card holder or have a Motor Vehicle Insurance or Workers’ Compensation claim in progress.

An initial consultation ranges between $90-110. This depends on whether you are treated for routine care such as nail or corn treatment or for biomechanical / musculoskeletal treatment which is more specialised. A discount is given for Pensioners and Health Care card holders. An initial appointment ranges between 30-40 minutes.

For a podiatry appointment please bring a large variety of your shoes including old shoes and sneakers (which will show us the way you walk), wear appropriate clothing, your
Private Health fund card, Medicare card if you have an EPC referral, a list of medications and any relevant x-rays, ultrasounds or MRI scans.

Bowen treatment is non-invasive and is done through loose fitting clothing. Before a treatment it is ideal to sip a least 2 glasses of water and then after your treatment continue to sip another 6-8 glasses of water, also avoid sitting longer than 20 minutes, avoid hot showers/baths and don’t do any heavy lifting.

Our semi-customised orthoses start from $87. Fully customised casted orthotics start from $710. Please refer to our blog for more information on why we as a clinic strongly believe that a lot of people don’t need orthotics long term if their joints and muscles are assessed and treated.

We as a practice really value family time as we all have young children. We are open Monday-Friday 8.30am to 5.30pm. We offer early and late appointments and also appointments during lunch time to cater for not opening on a Saturday. Generally, with having 5 podiatrists, there is a time that is convenient.

Podiatry services are generally not covered by Medicare unless you have an appropriate Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) referral from your Doctor. This is a federal government incentive for selective patients with a chronic medical condition or complex care needs who require podiatry services. A referral must be obtained from your Doctor prior to your consultation. Please visit your Doctor for more information or to determine your eligibility. We currently bulk bill all pensioners and health care card holder who have an EPC referral. (This is time dependant based on a 15-20 minute consultation.)

Yes, from the very young to the elderly. Experience has shown us it is wise to address children’s foot concerns early. This way any ‘gait’ or ‘foot posture / structure’ problems have a better chance of being remedied before becoming more problematic.

Most funds cover podiatry treatment under ancillary benefits. You should however, contact your fund to make sure your policy includes podiatry as each health fund has a different rebate schedule.

No, we don’t as our fully refurbished clinic offers full disabled access. By visiting our clinic, we are able to provide better treatment at a much cheaper rate than home visits. We believe our elderly patients benefit greatly from being out of their homes and interacting with our podiatrists and friendly receptionists.

We are very privileged to have the services of Dr Reza Naraghi who is a Podiatric Surgeon (Foot Surgeon). He practices from the rooms of Foot Focus Podiatry every week.
