Ainslie has a keen interest in the high risk foot, which includes diabetes, neuropathy and rheumatoid foot conditions. The best thing about podiatry is "just helping people on a one to one basis. I like the way podiatry goes from diagnosing and assessing through to treatment for foot and leg problems"

Jill joined the practice in 2006 moving from working in the NHS and the private practice in the U.K. Jill graduated from Salford with a Diploma in Podiatric Medicine in 1988. She also took a Bachelor of Science in Podiatry degree at Salford University in 1998

Jill particularly enjoys working with people with diabetes which she finds rewarding, especially working with foot ulcers. She also enjoys helping people who are just unable to cut their own nails anymore. The best thing about podiatry is "working with interesting people, being able to help alleviate their foot pain and helping keep people mobile." Because of her previous experience in the field, Jill was recruited by Queensland Health in April 2011 to lead the High Risk   Diabetic Foot Services on the Sunshine and Cooloola Coasts.  She is looking forward to combining the new work with her current work at Buderim Podiatry.

 
Martin has been with Buderim podiatry since 2004. Martin studied Podiatry at Curtin University, Western Australia (1995). Martin has also completed the Australian Podiatry Certificate grades 1 and 2.

The sort of conditions Martin likes to treat are intractable and difficult to treat pain. The best thing about podiatry is "having people walk out the door without pain". " I've made a special study of dry needling for muscle problems and the use of accupuncture for the foot and leg which has helped many people with foot and leg pain. "
