Our Service:
iPODIATRY Australia is an extension of iPHYSIO Australia, bringing your facility to the next level in holistic care. An approach to healthcare that focuses attention on preventing illness and prolonging life. Care of the highest standard that is both reliable and affordable.
At iPODIATRY we know a lot can be done to relieve pain, improve comfort and keep residents healthier with a renewed quality of life.
The condition of feet often provides an early indication for conditions such as diabetes, arthritis and circulatory disease. We’re dedicated to providing a service that’s reliable. By establishing a routine cycle of visits, your facilities can be assured that we’ll be on-site when we’re supposed to and every resident will be seen as often as clinically indicated. We believe it is our duty to minimise out of pocket expenses where we can, and a podiatry provider should be working to ensure that all eligible residents are being bulk billed so there’s no cost to them (or the facility).
Our service includes:
- General Podiatry (management of nails, corns and callus, fungal infections, ingrown toe nails, management of diabetic ulcers including debridement and dressing)
