Podiatry

What do we offer?

Podiatrists deal with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of the feet and lower limbs. Many conditions may be prevented by early diagnosis and intervention by a Podiatrist.

The podiatry service regularly has a waiting list for service given the high demand of the service.

To support the demand for podiatry services, MTHCS has Foot Care Clinics for people who are unable to cut their own toenails.  These clinics are provided by Allied Health Assistants under the guidance of the Podiatrist. The Podiatist will refer clients to this service.

Community availability

The Podiatry Department operates clinics from Mallee Track Health and Community Service Sites in Ouyen, Sea Lake, Underbool and Murrayville.
