Healthy feet are the foundation for happy, active kids.

Children’s feet are still growing and developing, which means small issues like flat feet, clumsiness, or leg pain can affect how they walk, run, and play. Our podiatrists specialise in identifying and treating early signs of biomechanical problems to help improve balance, coordination, and comfort as your child grows. A simple foot and leg assessment can make a big difference in preventing future concerns.

Foot health isn’t just about movement — it’s also about comfort and confidence. Common conditions such as plantar warts, ingrown toenails, and skin infections can cause pain and stop kids from enjoying their favourite activities. Our gentle, child-friendly treatments aim to relieve discomfort quickly and prevent recurrence. Give your child the best start from the ground up — book a check-up with our experienced podiatry team today.

Even minor concerns—such as a corn, blister, or patch of hard skin—can quickly turn into something painful or even lead to infection if ignored. Getting checked and treated early by a professional helps prevent complications and keeps you comfortable, active, and on your feet.

Nail salons can offer cosmetic services, but they are not trained to identify or manage underlying foot problems.

Podiatrists are healthcare professionals who specialise in diagnosing and treating skin and nail conditions. We use sterile equipment and follow strict infection-control practices to protect your long-term foot health.

Don’t let small problems grow into bigger ones—book your appointment with MyFootDr Modbury today on 82654130!

Taking care of your feet for the long run begins with choosing the right shoes.
Just because something feels comfortable doesn’t necessarily mean it’s giving your feet the support they need.

Ill-fitting or unsupportive footwear—even if it seems fine at first—can contribute to:
👣 Pain in the heels or arches
👣 Pressure points and callus build-up
👣 Reduced stability or balance problems
👣 Ongoing aches you might not realise are preventable

At MyFootDr Mobury, we go beyond simply checking your feet—we assess how they function and what they require. Our podiatry team can recommend and fit footwear from reliable, podiatry-approved brands

For more information on footwear, check our site https://www.myfootdr.com.au/our-services/footwear/
