The Foot and Leg Pain Clinics were founded by one of Australia's most experienced Sports Podiatrist's, Paul Dowie. Created to fill a void he saw in the area of assisting people with aches, pains and injuries in their feet, legs, knees and hips, the clinics focus musculoskeletal issues and biomechanics. Many podiatrists provide valuable services for general foot care but the Foot and Leg Pain Clinics specifically concentrate on pain relief, injury prevention and assisting degenerative issues, looking past the surface symptoms to find the cause of your foot and leg problems.
