Available Position: Fulltime Podiatrist

Podiatrist position in Brisbane to start in June 2025.

Our mission at Happifeet Podiatry is to help people be happy, healthy and active through caring for their feet. We have been helping people in the Western suburbs since 2004. In 2023, we sold our Springfield clinic and now enjoy focusing on our Middle Clinic which incorporates a shoe shop at Metro Middle Park Shopping Centre.

We are looking for someone who is honest, compassionate and takes pride in their work. Someone who is open to new ideas on how to improve their way of practicing. After 21 years of practice I am still learning new skills and always looking for ways to improve on how I do things. I want to pass on my years of experience to someone who wants to learn and make a positive difference to people's lives.

At Happifeet Podiatry, we treat each other with care and respect each and every day. We have a collegial culture and respect everyone’s contribution to the success of Happifeet.

I personally have a real love of shoes and enjoy making people happy by taking care of them and I have found that I am able to fulfil these 2 joys of mine through podiatry. This is why we offer a more comprehensive podiatry service incorporating a podiatry clinic, a shoe shop and an online store selling footwear and foot care products to customers Australia wide.
