FOOT - Key Persons
I grew up in sunny Bay of Plenty before moving to Auckland to pursue my tertiary studies. I have a double degree: BSc (Biomed) and BHSc (Podiatry).
Sports podiatry is my passion. I specialise in treating musculoskeletal injuries. Having spent most of my childhood playing various sports and going to the gym, I experienced my share of serious injuries. This sparked my interest in how I could help people recover and return to leading an active life.

Building trust, educating and working with the patient is pivotal in my practice for best outcomes. I take a keen interest in continual professional development which reflects in clinic.
