What is a Podiatrist?

A podiatrist is a healthcare professional who specializes in diagnosing, treating, and preventing conditions related to the feet, ankles, and lower limbs. They help with problems like heel pain, ingrown toenails, bunions, plantar fasciitis, and sports injuries, as well as provide custom orthotics to improve foot function.

Podiatrists also play a crucial role in diabetic foot care, helping to prevent complications like ulcers and infections.

What is a Physiotherapist?

A physiotherapist (or physio) is a movement specialist who helps people recover from injuries, manage pain, and improve mobility. They treat conditions affecting the muscles, joints, and nerves, using techniques like hands-on therapy, exercise programs, dry needling, and rehabilitation plans. Physiotherapy is beneficial for issues such as sports injuries, back and neck pain, arthritis, and post-surgical recovery.

Together, podiatrists and physiotherapists work to keep you moving pain-free, improving performance, and preventing future injuries.

The podiatrist was good. He was honest by telling me my feet does not look bad. because I had no pains or existing illness causing the bunion, there was no need to go back. However the product I bought called Trimsole bunion socks was not good. It just did not sit properly. It keeps slipping out. So I decided to give it away.

What a Northside gem! Very professional, friendly service. My first podiatry experience was certainly a positive one and cannot thank Zac enough for his patience and expertise. Highly recommend Sharon and her staff at Walking on Air Podiatry, Bracken Ridge.

It was my first visit and I was so happy with the outcome. I have visited a few Podiatrist in the last few years and I must say I found Walking on Air Podiatry was the best Podiatrist I have attended. My Podiatrist was very friendly and helpful giving me advice on my toe nails and feet. I have ingrown toe nails and I never felt any pain. I definitely will be returning and have rebooked another appointment.

I recently had an appointment with Sharon at Bracken Ridge. She sorted out my sore foot quickly and without causing me any pain. A bonus was that the wonderful staff let me bring my 4 month old baby and were happy for her to sit in her bouncer in the room for the duration of my appointment. Wonderful, friendly service!

My recent initial consultation with Sharon made for an excellent first impression. Sharon's professionalism and her skill as a clinician were evident throughout the consult. I will happily put my future footcare in Sharon's more than capable hands. Appointment setting and general queries were handled admirably by polite, informative Reception staff.
