Your first visit, start to finish

  1. Before you arrive

    Book, then bring three things

    • Book online for $10 off the $100 initial consultation, or call either clinic.
    • Bring the shoes you wear most, any X-ray or ultrasound reports, and a referral if your GP gave you one.
    • WorkCover and TAC: bring your claim number.
    • Parking is free at both clinics, with wheelchair access.
  2. In the room

    Fiona sees you herself

    • There is one podiatrist here, so the person you book is the person you see, every visit.
    • Fiona asks how the problem started and looks at your feet and nails.
    • For heel, arch or walking problems she checks your foot posture, watches you walk and looks at your shoes.
  3. By the time you leave

    You know what it is and what it costs

    • Fiona explains what is going on and the treatment options, with their prices.
    • HICAPS is on site, so your health fund rebate comes off on the day.
    • After treatment, Fiona phones you to check how your recovery is going.

Paying for podiatry: which one is you?

Every fee and rebate
  • Private health fund

    “I have extras cover”

    HICAPS is on site, so your rebate comes off on the day and you pay the rest. How much comes back depends on your fund and your level of extras cover.

  • Medicare

    “My GP gave me a care plan”

    A GP chronic condition management plan covers up to 5 allied health visits a year, shared across all allied health. Medicare pays $63.40 a visit; you pay the clinic fee and a gap remains.

  • DVA

    “I have a DVA card”

    Gold Card: no out-of-pocket cost. White Card: accepted conditions, with a gap. You need a referral.

  • NDIS

    “I am on the NDIS”

    Self-managed, plan-managed and agency-managed participants are all welcome.

  • WorkCover and TAC

    “It is a work or road injury”

    Bring your claim number. TAC patients also bring their paperwork.

  • Paying yourself

    “None of these”

Questions about seeing a podiatrist

Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist?

No referral is needed to see a podiatrist privately. Book online or by phone. Medicare and DVA claims do need a referral, so bring yours if your GP has given you one. WorkCover: bring your claim number.

How much does a podiatrist cost in Narre Warren?

An initial consultation is from $100, with $10 off when you book online. A standard consultation is from $90. Ingrown toenail surgery is from $450 for one toe with the follow-up visit included, and each extra toe adds $50. Custom orthotics are from $650, including the biomechanical assessment, fitting and a review. See all fees and rebates.

Can I claim podiatry on Medicare?

Yes, with a GP chronic condition management plan (GPCCMP). Your GP prepares or reviews the plan within the last 18 months and refers you. The plan covers up to 5 rebated allied health visits per calendar year in total, shared across every allied health service you use. Each podiatry visit runs at least 20 minutes under Medicare item 10962, and the Medicare benefit is $63.40 per visit. Plans made before 1 July 2025 still work until 30 June 2027.

Can I use my health fund on the day?

Yes. HICAPS is on site, so your private health fund rebate comes off on the spot. How much you get back depends on your fund and your level of extras cover.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Bring any X-ray or ultrasound reports for your feet or ankles, the shoes you wear most and a referral if you have one. WorkCover: bring your claim number. TAC patients need their claim number and paperwork.
