  At The Walking Clinic, we understand that each podiatrist has their own unique interests and career aspirations. We encourage you to specialise in areas you’re passionate about, whether it’s sports podiatry, diabetic foot care, paediatrics, or any other area. We will support you as you grow into your niche and pursue specialisation within the field. You’ll also have the freedom to treat the patients you want to and manage your schedule in a way that aligns with your career goals and personal interests. We’ll provide the resources and support to help you succeed and make your career journey uniquely yours.

  We are a patient-centered practice that fosters a culture of open communication. If you have any questions, concerns, or ideas, we encourage you to share them. We are committed to transparency, ensuring that all team members have a voice in the practice’s growth and decision-making process.
  
  
• Community Engagement: 

  In addition to clinical care, we are deeply involved in the Canberra community, working with local GPs, sporting teams, and community groups like Diabetes ACT/NSW and Parkinson’s ACT. You’ll have the opportunity to build strong connections within the community, contribute to local health initiatives, and make a real difference beyond the clinic walls.
  
  

With The Walking Clinic, you’ll join an organisation that not only provides the tools for your professional growth but also creates an environment where teamwork, mentorship, and patient outcomes are at the forefront.
