About
Who We Are
Great Feets Podiatry was established with a clear purpose: to provide podiatric care that genuinely improves quality of life. Based in Redfern, we combine clinical expertise with a personal, unhurried approach that puts the patient first.
We treat patients of all ages and backgrounds – from young children taking their first steps, to athletes recovering from injury, to elderly patients managing complex chronic conditions. Whatever brings you to us, you can expect to be heard, assessed thoroughly, and treated with care.

How We Work
From your first appointment to lasting results.
Every visit to Great Feets follows the same patient-centred process – designed to get to the bottom of the issue and keep you moving well.
01
We Listen
Your appointment begins with a conversation. We take the time to understand your symptoms, history, lifestyle, and goals - because the full picture always matters before we form any conclusions.
02
We Diagnose
We identify the underlying cause of your concern, not just what's presenting on the surface. This often involves gait analysis, biomechanical assessment, and a review of your footwear and activity levels.
03
We Treat & Support
Your treatment plan is tailored specifically to you. We explain every step clearly and continue to support your progress over time, adjusting our approach as your needs change.

No. You can book directly with Great Feets Podiatry without a GP referral. If your GP has referred you under a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate. Please bring your referral letter if this applies to you.
We accept most major private health funds with podiatry extras cover. We process HICAPS claims on-the-spot, so you only pay the gap at the time of your visit. We recommend checking your level of cover with your fund before your appointment.
Medicare does not cover routine podiatry appointments. However, if you have a chronic condition and a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan, your GP may refer you for up to five Medicare-subsidised sessions per year under the Enhanced Primary Care scheme.
We are open Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM. We are closed on Saturday and Sunday.
You can book online through our Cliniko booking system at any time, or call us on (02) 9698 7707 during business hours. No referral is needed.
