NDIS Provider - Podiatry Services
Bondi Podiatry is an NDIS registered provider. This means that we are approved to provide podiatry services and devices under the NDIS (national disability insurance scheme). Podiatry can be accessed by participants who have therapy supports and/or assistive technology selected under their NDIS plan.
A podiatrist is a university-qualified healthcare professional who is registered with AHPRA who can diagnose and treat foot and lower limb conditions.
These conditions include musculoskeletal injuries, nail problems, skin conditions, sporting injuries, arthritis, pediatric foot problems, the effects of chronic disease on the lower limb. They can assess any problem relating to the lower limb.
Bondi Podiatry can offer patients the following under the NDIS:
General Treatments - Skin and nail care for those who need assistance with self-care and those with nail and skin problems
Children and Adult – development and biomechanical/ gait assessment
High risk- Neurological and vascular assessment of the feet
Orthotic devices and insoles - prefabricated and custom orthotics
Footwear assessment and recommendations
Accessing Podiatry Services
If clinically needed and your NDIS plan allows therapy supports for daily living you are probably able to access podiatry services. Devices like orthotics can be accessed under assistive technology. These devices will need prior approval by the NDIA and you will need an initial appointment to assess and determine the clinical need and which device is suitable for you.
What will happen at your first podiatry appointment?
Your podiatrist will assess your needs and discuss a management plan with you. If you are managed through the NDIA we will set up the administration during this appointment and a service agreement would be created as required.
If needed, follow-up appointments will be booked for ongoing management and care.
What can you do before your first appointment?
It is best if you send us a copy of your plan before your first appointment via email to info@bondipodiatry.com.au. This will give us an idea of how we can help you.
Paying for appointments
Self-managed participants will need to pay for appointments on the day. We accept EFTPOS and cash.
Participants on an NDIA managed plan will be claimed through the NDIS portal.
