Telehealth Consultations

If you are unable to attend the clinic or would prefer to have a consultation with a podiatrist from your home we are now offering telehealth consultations. 

Telehealth consultations are a great way to discuss your foot and lower limb health. Your podiatrist will be able to give you an injury diagnosis and construct an exercise rehabilitation program via telehealth. If required, we are able to organise imaging referrals including xray, ultrasound and MRI and send them directly to the imaging facility to minimise contact.

A range of conditions can be assessed via telehealth including, but not limited to:

  • Warts/pappilomas

  • Chilblains

  • Fungal Nails

  • Any wonderful and weird skin lesions

  • Foot pain

  • Injury rehabilitation

  • Return to dance programs

  • Footwear advice (both dance and day to day)

Telehealth consultations can also be used for foot strengthening work and conditioning and we can tailor a program specifically for you or your child’s needs. If your child is in the age group to commence pointe work in the coming years, now is a great time to begin their pre pointe training and it can be done from the comfort of your home.

  • These consults are conducted online with video and we will send a secure link so that you can safely chat with our podiatrist and receive treatment and advice

  • If the podiatrist deems it necessary for a face to face consult this will be arranged in the clinic

  • If you are unsure whether a telehealth consult will be appropriate for you our podiatrists will be more than happy to discuss this with you

  • Medicare is now offering rebates via telehealth for patients that have a Chronic Disease Management Plan (CDM) from their GP

  • The majority of private health funds are also offering rebates on telehealth consultations. Please contact your health fund for further details. 

  • Payment can be made via direct debit or over the phone with our reception staff

  • If you would like to organise a telehealth please contact our reception staff on 9555 3044 and they will be able to organise an appointment time for you.
