Understanding Your Appointment Options

We offer appointments with both Registered Podiatrists and our Foot Care Assistant. Here's a quick guide to help you understand the difference:

  • Registered Podiatrists (registered with the New Zealand Podiatry Board and hold current Annual Practicing Certificates) are health professionals with advanced training in diagnosing, treating, and managing foot and lower limb conditions. They are qualified to treat injuries, prescribe orthotics, and perform surgical procedures such as ingrown toenail removal. Podiatrists can also treat patients under ACC and other third-party funders.
  • Our Foot Care Assistant provides non-invasive cosmetic and routine care services such as nail trimming, Medi-Pedis, and nail reconstruction, under the supervision of a Registered Podiatrist. These appointments are not suitable for high-risk conditions or third-party-funded care (e.g. ACC, insurance, or PHO contracts).

We adhere to the highest standards of health and safety to ensure your well-being during your visit. Our clinic is open Monday to Friday, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, with extended hours until 6:00 pm on Tuesdays by appointment only.

If you are feeling unwell, we kindly ask that you stay home. Please call us to reschedule your appointment, and we will be happy to assist you.
