Podiatry Hive Member Profile – Narelle Montgomery
Member Profile
Name: Narelle Montgomery
Name of Clinic: Narelle Montgomery Podiatry
Where do you operate: Sutherland, New South Wales
How long have you been in business?
I have been a Podiatrist for 25 years. I have been in business 20 years.
What attracted you to Podiatry?
I was studying Computer science but it was too logical and cold, so I looked for a profession that had a lot more personal touch and I could make a difference… It is great to see the look on patient’s faces when you can fix them instantly, especially with ingrown toenails.
What‘s the funniest thing that’s happened to you in the clinic?
Patient’s who don’t wear underwear under their clothing! Honestly, I don’t know where to look! And also, still being anonymous within my own Clinic! We have a lot of patients who have never seen me, but claim they know me well!
Share what you love about your family, pet/s or hobbies?
My family keep me very grounded. When I come home stressed, my kids make me laugh and tell me they love me although I am crazy, and my husband stops me from taking things so seriously. Our turtles just make me laugh watching them swim around our fish tank thinking I have food for them, and watching my husband dote on them although he didn’t want them in the first place.
