WELCOME TO
THE FOOT CLINIC
Theresa's Foot Clinic is now at three locations: Crows Nest, Padstow and Panania
What is Podiatry?
Podiatry consists of the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of medical and surgical conditions of the feet and lower limbs. Podiatrists treat conditions such as those resulting from bone and joint disorders such as arthritis and soft-tissue and muscular pathologies.
Podiatrists are also able to diagnose and treat any complications of the above which affect the lower limb, including skin and nail disorders, corns, calluses and ingrown toenails. They also diagnose and treat foot injuries and infections gained through sport or other activities.
