The NQ Foot and Ankle Centre is housed in a custom built Sports Medicine Centre in the heart of Thuringowa. While our focus is on the treatment of sports related injuries to the lower limb, we offer a full range of Podiatry services for the entire family. We have also forged a strong working relationship with other health professionals located in the centre, including physiotherapists, massage therapists, personal trainers, sports doctors and dietitians.
Our Podiatrists are committed to continuing education, and our patients can be assured of receiving the most up to date, scientifically based treatments possible. Our contemporary, state of the art facilities allow a full range of comprehensive examinations to be undertaken, which is essential for an accurate diagnosis and successful treatment outcome.
