5 Clinics for the Best Podiatrists in Perth
How We Picked the Best Podiatrists in Perth
Expertise
We looked into the credentials of the practitioners carefully to ensure we only feature the best of the best in podiatric care.
Accessibility
We included clinics that are easily reachable and accessible. We checked their booking system, operating hours, and overall responsiveness to any queries or concerns.
Professionalism
More than the excellence of the practitioners, we also made sure that they conduct their treatments with utmost professionalism and friendliness. We know the atmosphere of a clinic is an important factor to clients, so we made sure to assess that as well.
Client Satisfaction
Who better to ask than the previous clients about their overall experience? We included this aspect because it gives us insight into factors like efficiency and manner of the practitioners and the staff.

Pros
- Intuitive online booking system
- Multidisciplinary clinic with wide range of services
- Strong credentials of podiatrists
Cons
- Cancellation fee for those who fail to give 12 hours’ notice
- Small team of podiatrists
- Younger than competitors
Established in 2013, WA Health Group is pretty young compared to the other clinics in our list. Despite this, they have made their name as a holistic and multidisciplinary clinic with a good track record and established clientele.
We went to their clinic to check out their podiatry services in particular. We were pleasantly surprised that they actually have a whole team of professionals offering other services such as physiotherapy, remedial massage, dietetics, exercise physiology, and a studio for male and female pelvic health.
Even though our main focus is podiatry, we acknowledge that every case is different so we like that they have a varied range of services that could cover a myriad of needs when it comes to mobility and pain reduction.
They have a small yet strong team of two podiatrists with solid credentials and extensive experience. One of them is even a sports podiatrist in particular for all the athletes out there.
We liked how they were patient in explaining the reason behind your condition and their approach is very caring all throughout. Their previous clients also note how professional they are and how effective their treatment plans are.
A downside, however, is since they’re a small team it might be harder to get a schedule for your appointment. So make sure to book early.
Also, take note that they charge a cancellation fee should you fail to give a 12 hours’ notice prior to your scheduled appointment.
Their online booking process is intuitive and convenient. You can also give them a call directly for faster assistance.

Pros
- Convenient location
- Easy to get in-house referral for other services
- Professional with time
- Full clinical Pilates gym in their clinic
Cons
- Limited information on website
- Closed on Sundays
- No sports podiatrist
We love how accessible Central City Podiatry is. Conveniently located at the top floor of the Perth Train Station, you can easily find it.
As a clinic, it specializes in podiatry but is affiliated to a multidisciplinary medical group that also offers massage, chiropractic, and physiotherapy. So in case you need an in-house referral, this clinic is a good and convenient option.
We took a peek at the credentials of their podiatrists and were impressed by their level of experience and credentials. One of them is even a certified SWIFT Microwave Wart Therapy provider.
We do wish they have podiatrists that specialize in sports podiatry like with other clinics, however.
Based on our experience, they are very professional even with time. Appointments are rarely late.
We like that they also provide a thorough diagnosis and explanation so nothing gets lost in translation. The podiatrists are very patient and highly encouraging.
We also noticed that they have a full clinical Pilates gym so you can do exercises as part of your treatment plan.
We wish they had more information on their website about their services. It’s a good thing they have an active hotline you can contact should you have any questions.
The booking process is also very intuitive. It’s easy to get an appointment despite having only two podiatrists on their team.

Established in 2017, JS Podiatry may be younger than the other clinics in our list. Still, we included them because of their impressive track record and evidence-based practice that reflects in everything they do.
They’re a local family-run podiatry clinic. Their main podiatrist has over ten years of experience in both private and public clinics.
Their method combines both clinical and sports podiatry to address symptoms and concerns. So whether you’re an athlete or a patient with a chronic foot or ankle condition, this clinic is a prime option for you.
They use cutting-edge technology in their practice as seen in their custom orthotics and video gait analysis. If you’re looking for a modern clinic, JS Podiatry may be for you.
Based on our experience, they really handle your case with utmost professionalism and consideration. You’ll feel right at home with their encouraging and calming atmosphere.
They’re professional and personal at the same time, making them a conducive place for treatment. We also like that they’re affiliated with Spine & Sports, making their practice multidisciplinary.
So if you need chiropractic or physiotherapy, you can also get a referral from them. Since every case is different, we like that there is an option like this.
As for payment, they have on the spot private health fund rebates available via HICAPS terminal. So you can just bring your health fund card with you on your appointment and everything will be handled by their friendly receptionists.
Booking an appointment online is a seamless process. Slots fill up fast, so make sure to book in advance to get your desired schedule.
Make sure to review their operating hours since they change on Saturdays and are closed on Sundays to avoid any scheduling conflicts.

Pros
- Established in 1987
- Modern approach despite being an old clinic
- Bigger team of podiatrists with different specializations
- Offers foot surgery
Cons
- No online booking system
- Not open on Sundays
- Inconsistent operating hours
Initially established in 1987, Centrepod is one of the oldest clinics in this list – and for good reason. Since then, they have made a name for themselves in the podiatry practice because of their excellence and commitment to service.
We love that despite them being an old clinic, their techniques are modern and up to date to make sure you get the most optimum level of care for your feet and ankles. They also have a bigger team of podiatrists compared to their competitors, making it far easier to set an appointment with a podiatrist that specializes in your needs.
Their team is composed of podiatrists with solid credentials and experience. They have a podiatrist specializing in sports podiatry, musculoskeletal conditions, pediatrics, wound care, aged care, the high risk foot, and indigenous health.
They also believe in a healthy collaboration and integration of treatments with other health professionals to give you the results you desire. They tailor their treatment to your needs and budget.
They’re also capable of foot surgery for more intensive cases. So if that’s something you think you’ll need, they’re a good option.
They don’t have an online booking system, which is unfortunate. So you really have to give them a call to make an appointment.

Pros
- Holistic and hands-on approach
- Many practitioners to choose from
- Has a podiatric surgeon
- Streamlined process
- Easy booking process
- Convenient location
Cons
- No sports podiatrist unlike most competitors
- Closed on weekends
Foot Focus Podiatry has been operating for over two decades now. Since then, they have been a reliable podiatric clinic known for their holistic and hands-on approach to treatment and excellent track record.
They’re conveniently located between Curtin University and Westfield Carousel, ten minutes south of Perth CBD. They offer parking and disabled access, so it’s very convenient.
We love that they have a strong team of podiatrists and a podiatric surgeon. They have over six practitioners, so it’s easy to find one best suited for your needs.
All of them have different specializations from general podiatry to pediatrics. We did note that they don’t have a specialist for sports podiatry.
So if you’re looking for that in particular, it might be best to check out the other clinics on this list.
On our first visit there, they efficiently performed a medical assessment of previous injuries and treatments. They’ll also assess your footwear, foot type, activity, joint mobility, muscle function, strength, and balance.
They also explained everything clearly before crafting a treatment plan that’s tailored just for you. We found their approach modern and hands-on, you really feel that you’re involved in your recovery.
As for techniques they use joint mobilization, trigger-point release, strain-counterstrain, massage, laser, osteopathic techniques, acupuncture, at-home exercises, strengthening, footwear and orthoses. As you can see, they really take on a holistic approach which we like.
It’s pretty easy to set an appointment online. Although it might take longer if you’re a new patient.
So you can also give them a call for faster service.
