Meet Nicole

I’m the founder of Renew Podiatry and a podiatrist with more than 25 years of clinical experience. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Podiatry) and have worked across a broad range of areas within the profession.

Throughout my career, I have developed a strong commitment to providing thorough, personalised care and building trusted, long-term relationships with patients.

I believe a thorough assessment is the foundation of effective treatment. Foot and lower limb problems can have many contributing factors, and a detailed assessment helps identify what may be contributing to your condition. I will explain my findings clearly and work with you to develop a treatment plan suited to your needs and goals.

My professional interests include heel pain, sports injuries, biomechanics and gait analysis, children's foot conditions and diabetes-related foot care. Having worked in a High Risk Foot Clinic, I have developed a strong appreciation for the importance of early assessment, prevention and appropriate management for people living with diabetes and other complex foot conditions.

At Renew Podiatry, my goal is not simply to relieve pain, but to help you understand why your problem has developed and what we can do together to improve it. Whether you're experiencing heel pain, recovering from a sporting injury, managing an ongoing foot condition or seeking advice about your child's feet, my aim is to provide thoughtful, individualised care that helps you move comfortably, remain active and continue doing the things that are important to you.

Treatment is tailored to your needs and may include exercise rehabilitation, shockwave therapy, dry needling, footwear advice, orthotic therapy or other appropriate treatment options. Wherever possible, the focus is on addressing contributing factors and achieving lasting improvement rather than simply managing symptoms.

I am committed to continuing professional development and regularly updating my knowledge and clinical skills. Podiatry continues to evolve, and I believe it is important to combine clinical experience with contemporary assessment techniques and current evidence to provide a high standard of care.

I also understand that visiting a healthcare professional can sometimes feel daunting. Whether you're attending for persistent heel pain, concerns about your child's feet, diabetes-related foot care or routine treatment, you can expect a welcoming environment where your concerns are listened to, your questions are answered and your treatment options are clearly explained.

Outside the clinic, I enjoy exploring the natural beauty of Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, bushwalking, spending time at our local beaches and discovering hidden treasures along the shoreline with my young twins. Staying active and spending time outdoors with my family is an important part of my life.

I look forward to welcoming you to Renew Podiatry.

My goal is simple: to provide thorough, evidence-based podiatry care in a welcoming environment where every patient feels listened to and supported.
