We do take covid safety seriously. We try our very best to keep our clinic clean. We clean our high use surfaces between all patients. Our waiting room is large and presently when you come to our clinic it is just you and the podiatrist onsite. You will rarely be sitting in the waiting room with another patient, making our clinic a very safe space. We ask that everyone adheres to NSW health rules by wearing a mask to your appointments, and also checking in when you arrive. If you forget your mask we will provide one. We have hand sanitiser available for use when you arrive and leave the clinic. All our podiatrists are vaccinated.
