No, anyone with a lower limb complaint can come and see a Podiatrist and if you are privately insured which covers 'Podiatry' services a rebate will apply. However, if you are having your costs covered by Work cover, the Department of Veteran Affairs or through the Enhanced Primary Care Program you will need to be referred to our Clinic by your usual General Practitioner.
Yes, you can park in the lane way or at the front of our practice. Parking is also available under the Ipswich Mall. At our other clinics, you may park in the car park of the surgery.
Very few people need orthotics and we are not a 'pro-orthotic' clinic especially when it comes to children. Orthotics are a last resort when we can not re-train the muscles and joints to work properly. We will always try exercises, strapping and padding prior to orthotics. We do not prescribe orthotics for children under 7 unless they have significant gait problems as their feet have not formed yet. We may prescribe some orthotic devices that have a short term impact.
Vascular assessment is a non-invasive study to determine how the blood flows through the arteries and veins between the heart and the feet. We usually recommend a vascular assessment for diabetics, long term smokers or patients with wounds that have not healed.
Yes, we will see patients in any of these facilities where we are permitted. Some nursing homes have contracted Podiatrists and we are not able to attend patients within these facilities.
A neurological assessment involves determining how healthy your nerves are and what you can feel. Often your nerves in your feet are first affected so it is important to regularly test sensation and ability of your muscles to function in your feet and lower legs. If you have lost some sensation we can assist you in looking after your feet and lower limbs or design exercises or footwear modifications to assist in maintaining the health of your feet and nervous system.
Yes, if you're Doctor has placed you on a Team Care Arrangement under the National Enhanced Primary Care Program and authorised you to visit a Podiatrist our clinic will bulk bill your visits. You will have no out of pocket expenses. The National Primary Care Program is for Patients with complex or long term chronic conditions. Your usual General Practitioner will advise you if you can access this program.
Yes, we have one of the largest home visiting services in Ipswich. We conduct home visits from Goodna to Gatton. We have one Podiatrist doing home visits everyday from Monday to Friday.
