  • What attracted you to Podiatry?

    Wanting to help people & being able to run my own business at the same time. I am still passionate about helping people and now specialise in complex patient problems and pain that has defied traditional approaches. We have a specialist footgear showroom and wholesale to health professionals as well.

  • What‘s the funniest thing that’s happened to you in the clinic?

    Probably when Dubbo based in my early career, I flew to Cobar and Bourke monthly and we often had to buzz roos off the runway at day’s end.

  • Why did you join Podiatry Hive?

    To reset my business focus with a group of experts who in effect are business coaches

  • Can you share one or two learning’s you have had from your time with Podiatry Hive, which have had an impact on your business, or even your life:

    The recent 2 day talk fest was invaluable to get us all to reset goals and write business and marketing plans. Too often we are distracted by the everyday doin’ it, doin’ it? (as Michael Gerber says) to reflect back on our businesses to run them efficiently! It was also empowering to share with like minded colleagues.

  • Other than being a fabulous Podiatrist and helping patients with their feet and lower limb health, what do you do outside of Podiatry:

    Golf, tennis, bushwalking, cycling, grandchildren. Various community groups. i.e all the usual.

  • If you held a dinner party and could invite 9 guests who would they be?
