I always knew I wanted to be in Healthcare to be able to help others and found that Podiatry was a great way to do that

I was part of the medical team handling injuries for South Melbourne FC. It was a great experience to work with professional athletes.

What do you do to keep fit?
I play basketball a couple of times a week socially. I also smash out a few runs a week as well as strength training.

Greatest sporting achievement?
I’ve been a part of a couple of National Championship Rep Basketball teams in New Zealand back in the “good old days”.

If you could jump on a plane and visit one city, which would it be?
Definitely Iceland to see the Northern Lights!

Exploring and trying new food spots in Melbourne.

Mehar was fabulous! Not only was she warm, welcoming and funny, but professional and thorough.
From the moment I walked in I felt well supported. She was able to identify what was going on, factoring in older ailments, and provide me with a treatment plan and options.
Her focus was on sustainable changes and support moving forward, and I had a written plan and clear explanations and clarifications on everything. I never felt like she was encouraging me to need to come back unnecessarily.
It took a few visits, and each time was met with the same warmth and professionalism. I got consistent progress and feel so much better now, even though it's a few months on from when I last saw her.
It's very clear she is wonderful at what she does, thinks about the whole person and I would definitely recommend her to others considering needing podiatry support.

The whole client therapist experience has been amazing. My Myotherapist provided me with a detailed plan to ensure my progress to meet my goals as well as addressing my issues of pain.

Each follow up session is reviewed, discussed and any changes added/deleted or modified.

The timely reminders and follow up from the clinic and experience with the Client Experience Officers have been always polite and friendly.

I've been coming here exclusively since my first consultation. I've had constant shoulder and arm pain from my line of work; the exercises my physio, Carina provided are easy to remember, not time consuming and super effective!

Bonus: the space feels super clean and calming - highly recommend coming here

I had a great experience here. The gym was well equipped and the atmosphere of the clinic was amazing. I had Carina, who was very knowledgeable about my injury and helped construct a great solution plan! Her manner was beautiful and she had great energy. Definitely recommend!

I’ve been seeing Talia for a few weeks now for treatment on my shoulder bursitis. From day 1 she was great! She explained everything about my condition to me and what she wanted to do which helped me visualise my own recovery. Could not recommend her enough.
