Peter has extensive experience in the field of sports Podiatry, and has been recognised with a fellowship of SEPA (Sports and Exercise Podiatry Australia).

Peter is also one of a select few Podiatrists in Victoria to be endorsed to prescribe scheduled drugs for his patients. This means you don’t have to be referred to a GP for medications such and antibiotics or pain medication, thus saving you time, money and delayed treatment.
