Podiatry Aged Care In Bendigo 

Podiatry has traditionally treated the older members of our society for toenail cutting and corn and callus reduction. We still do this service. However today the ‘older’ person is more active and does develop more problems with their feet because we are getting older and are walking more.

As we age the foot gets bigger( it’s a fact of life!). So shoe sizes need to be changed, just because you fitted into an 8B 20 years ago doesn't mean your foot is still this shape. If your still wearing the old fitting and having pain or foot problems then maybe your fitting is wrong.

‘Age’ related problems include foot strain, bunions, forefoot pain, heel pain, corns and calluses, thick nails, buckled toes, shuffling gait, shoe fitting, diabetes and the list goes on and on.

Medical conditions such as Diabetes, Arthritis, Heart Disease, Asthma, Circulation disorders, Stroke, Etc all have an effect on the foot and how YOU get around. Our objective is to keep you mobile as much as possible.

We understand the function of the foot and how it relates to mobility and we aim to keep you as mobile as possible.  

If you require fittings for orthopaedic shoes or custom made shoes, O'Dwyer Podiatry recommends Footwear Solutions in Bendigo.
