Thick, fungal and ingrown toenails are extremely common. They may be un- sightly, irritating or even painful. The good news is, in many cases the nail can be returned to its original look or close to. Fungal toe nails need to be treated in many ways. There are natural and prescription medications, laser therapy and cutting techniques that can help.
Heel pain is a very common problem presenting as pain in the morning, pain on rising, often acheing in the afternoon and in long standing cases most of the day. The plantar fascia is like a thick elastic band that runs from the heel to the toes and is heavily affected by foot function, footwear, foot strength and body posture.
Heel Callus/Callused heels often develop cracks and may bleed. This is simple to treat and in most cases you are able to walk out without pain, and with normal looking heels. Corns may be mistaken for warts, a virus that can enter the skin. They require different treatments are contagious and can spread to the opposite foot and to other areas on the foot.
Foot health for diabetics is extremely important. It is recommended that diabetics visit a podiatrist at least once a year for a check up. Blood sugar levels over time can cause nerve damage and circulation problems. These problems can cause or contribute to foot problems. Left unnoticed or untreated, sores, ingrown toe nails and other complications can lead to infections.
Working with runners and triathletes Ryan treats a magnitude of running and cycling specific injuries. Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, persistent calf injury, tibialis posterior tendonitis are all common and often related to footwear and biomechanics and podiatrists specialise in treating these types of injuries.

I’ve been battling with an undiagnosed running injury to my foot for several weeks. Brianna diagnosed it promptly on the first visit, and then gave me a referral to ensure the diagnosis was correct and the only issue with an ultrasound. She was spot on! It is such a relief to finally have a diagnosis and with Brianna’s expertise, be on the road to recovery.
All of the staff are really lovely and provide great customer service. I can not recommend them enough! Thank you Southern Sports Podiatry.

I recently saw Monique at Sutherland Sports Podiatry for an ankle injury and she was amazing. She quickly diagnosed the issue and in 2 appointments she gave me a treatment plan, improved my shoes and called me within a month to check on my progress. I would highly recommend Monique and the team at Sutherland Sports Podiatry.

Being a health professional myself I tend to be very critical. However, Ryan has been very thorough, knowledgeable and above all personable which is a very rare virtue in most of the health professionals nowadays. Also Jean at the front desk has been a pleasure to deal with . Thank you Ryan and Jean.

Ryan I cannot thank you enough. From that short consult you have explained more to me about why I have felt the way I have felt my whole life, then any doctor. I have had so many Dr appointments, blood tests… etc to figure out why I am so fatigued, why I have stomach issues , and lots more. Ryan was doing a stretch for my sore foot and asked a simple question are you hyper mobile? Noone has ever asked me that. From then he asked me some more questions and everything he asked I have experienced. I have struggled my whole life with feeling weak, with being so so tired, with unexplained pain

I can not thank Ryan Quintano enough for solving my blister problem. For years I have tried everything to stop my feet badly blistering whilst playing netball. Just 2 visits later he has fixed everything. I played 2 games of netball in 5 days and not 1 blister in sight. Thanks Ryan. You are a miracle worker
