Dear Valued Patients, We are still open for business and able to provide safe and hygienic consultations in the clinic. However if you are self-isolating and require a Telehealth consultation (Online or virtual appointment), this can be now bulk-billed if you have an eligible team care arrangement/enhanced primary car plan (EPC) from your GP.

Private health funds are also now providing a rebate for Telehealth - please check with your individual fund for the specific rebates. At Performance Podiatry & Physiotherapy we understand the challenges of being injured or in pain and the value of returning to your normal daily life. Just 5 minutes form Brisbane CBD- in the heart of the West End we are ideally located (and we have free on-site car parking!).

Kent and his team are fully professional in every aspect of Podiarty and will go to any length to have great outcomes for their patients.Their Richie braces are so superior to anything else on the market . I am a patient with Charcot Marie Tooth Disease and would not have any of the movement I have without Kent and his Richie Braces

So very helpful, the staff are great! I can't believe the difference seeing someone professionally has made to my feet, comfort and walking. I should have done it years ago. Highly recommend the service of Performance Podiatry.

Gemma's podiatry work was excellent. She was generous in sharing her knowledge and she administered her treatment with skill and care.

Went for the first time about a year ago - which was also my first visit to a podiatrist. Very professional and answered all my questions. Came early (I had a little one at home asleep) and was seen early so I could get back home to her. Very accommodating and I was so appreciative! Happy to come back - have my review appointment booked and have also referred family here as well.

I saw Gemma and she was really informative and knowledgeable explaining the kind of foot i have and what i can do to alleviate my pain. She was thorough and i felt she took the time to listen and understand my foot pain to then best recommend what i should do next. Would recommend.

I had a suspect Achilles tendon on both sides for many years but managed ok using generic shoe inserts, but then I got a heel spur which was quite painful and getting worse. I saw Gemma who did some observations and tests, and then explained in very clear easy to understand detail what was happening and how it can be fixed. Short story is she sorted me out with some custom shoe inserts and they have been absolutely magic, aches and pains quickly disappeared. Cant recommend her enough, I have complete confidence in her knowledge and advice. Thanks heaps!

Gemma provides top quality foot care and advice. Problematic feet and toes are things of the past. The Irish-lilt chat is an added bonus.

Professional and welcoming front desk staff make visits to this lovely sunny & well-equipped clinic located right in the centre of West End simple, and Scott is effective, caring, and proactive in his patient's wellbeing. Being a Medibank preferred provider makes booking appointments easier on the hip pocket, and I look forward to my visits because I always feel so good afterwards... I feel very lucky to have found such a great service provider in Scott and his dedicated team - thank you very much!

I have seen Scott multiple times for injuries related to rock climbing and have always come away happy. He is easy to talk to, very knowledgeable and gives a good massage. On top of that, he only wants you to come in if you really need it.

I have flat feet and was experiencing pain in my left leg, specifically in my achilles after not wearing my insoles for quite some time. I saw Gemma, one of the podiatrist and after a few sessions of dry needling, massages and strengthing exercises, I feel good as new. Gemma re-adjusted my insoles to suit my feet and added a small heel raise to reduce the load. I'm also encouraged to keep wearing my insoles to ensure theres no repeat injury. Thank you all at performance podiatry.
