Podiatrist Sydney CBD Services

Assessment and treatment for running injuries, heel pain, shin splints, Achilles problems, and sports-related foot conditions. We use video gait analysis to find the root cause and build a plan that keeps you moving.

Prescription foot orthotics, designed and fitted at the clinic. We assess your foot mechanics, take a 3D scan or cast, and dispense orthotics that are made specifically for your feet.

Heel spurs, plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendon pain are among the most common things we treat. Most cases resolve without surgery.

Growing pains, flat feet, toe walking and gait concerns in children. Early assessment avoids problems later.

Laser therapy for fungal nail infections. Effective for cases where topical treatments have not worked. Suitable for all skin types.

 It is important to emphasize that a timely diagnosis of Bunions can decrease the chance of needing more aggressive treatments.

Diagnosis and treatment for nerve pain between the toes. We assess footwear, offloading, and conservative management options before recommending any procedure.

Ingrown nail treatment, including minor surgical procedures under local anaesthetic. Permanent correction is available for nails that keep coming back.

What To Bring To Your First Visit.

  • Any footwear you wear regularly — we assess the shoe as well as the foot
  • Referral letter if you have one (not required, but useful)
  • Health fund card if you plan to claim on the day
  • Medicare card if you have a Chronic Disease Management Plan from your GP

Appointments run for 30–45 minutes for an initial consultation. Follow-up appointments are shorter. If you are coming in for orthotics, allow extra time for the assessment and scanning process.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist at the Sydney CBD clinic?

No. Most patients book directly. You only need a referral if you have a Medicare Chronic Disease Management Plan (from your GP), or if you are covered under the NDIS or DVA.

Does ModPod Podiatry bulk bill?

No. We are a private clinic. If you have private health insurance with extras cover, you can claim podiatry on the day using your health fund card. If you have a GP-issued Chronic Disease Management Plan, Medicare will contribute toward the cost of up to 5 treatments per calendar year.

How much does a podiatry appointment cost?

Initial consultations typically range from $90 to $150 depending on the type of appointment. Call us on (02) 9538 7647 for current pricing or check with your health fund for your rebate amount.

What conditions do podiatrists treat?

Podiatrists treat conditions of the foot, ankle, and lower leg. Common conditions include heel pain (plantar fasciitis), Achilles tendinopathy, shin splints, ingrown toenails, fungal nail infections, bunions, corns and callus, Morton's neuroma, and flat feet. We also prescribe custom orthotics and provide sports injury assessment.

Is a podiatrist the same as a chiropodist?

Yes. Chiropodist is an older term, used mainly in the UK and in Australia before the 1980s. The profession is now called podiatry. The training and scope of practice are the same.

Do podiatrists cut toenails?

Yes. Nail care is part of routine podiatry. At ModPod we call this a medical pedicure — it includes nail trimming, callus removal, and skin care. It is a clinical appointment, not a cosmetic one.

Where is the Sydney CBD clinic located?

We are at Suite 506, 66 Hunter Street, Sydney NSW 2000. Martin Place Metro Station is a 1-minute walk. Wynyard Station is 5 minutes away on foot.

What parking is available near the clinic?

Wilson Parking at 1 Bligh Street is the closest car park. There is also metered street parking available on nearby streets. Given the central location, public transport is the easiest option for most patients.
