Your body’s health and any concerns you may have are essential to us, and the highly skilled podiatry team will help you get back to feeling your best.
As mentioned above, many people often do not consider podiatry when they have an ankle, lower leg or foot issue. However, it is the best care you can receive for these areas in Fitzroy. At Inertia Health Group, we want you to feel confident that you’re getting the best care, so we’ve prepared a checklist of what you can expect on your first appointment.
Initial Consultation
Upon arrival for your first appointment, you will meet our brilliant administration team, and they will ask you to fill out a new client registration form. The intended purpose of this form is to provide the podiatry team with your relevant information; our podiatrists must gain a brief picture of your health before they begin treatment.
While our podiatry team is mainly concerned with your feet and whether or not they are functioning correctly, we will likely ask you questions regarding your general health. The parts that make up your body all work interconnectedly, and a problem in one area can cause an effect elsewhere, and this helps us to make our diagnoses and direct treatment accordingly.
Taking action
Our podiatry team aims to understand why you are experiencing pain or malfunction of the feet or lower leg so that we can recommend a short-term treatment and then provide a detailed plan for rehabilitation in the future. Many conditions can significantly impact your foot health, so getting as much information from you as possible is essential.
Conditions such as diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, heart & blood flow conditions and peripheral neuropathy can all cause difficulty for the health of your feet. One of the most critical parts of our podiatry job is educating the Fitzroy residents about how these conditions can affect your foot health and how you can help manage it.
Treatment
After the assessment, the podiatrist will begin treatment specific to your condition. We pride ourselves on forming and facilitating positive relationships with our clients from Fitzroy and the surrounds and ensuring your foot health along life’s continuum.
