Perth Podiatric Medicine & Surgery Group

About

We are a group of Perth Podiatrists who have undertaken podiatry speciality training at a postgraduate doctoral level through the University of Western Australia to significantly advance our scope of practice above that of a general podiatrist.

We offer patients continuity of foot care from conservative, through to surgical management options, utilising best available evidence with a view to achieve superior outcomes.

Dr Burke Hugo is registered with AHPRA as a specialist Podiatric Surgeon and is able to offer both conservative and surgical solutions to address many common foot problems including bunions, hammertoes, neuromas, heel spurs and flat feet.

Dr Hugo completed his 6-year podiatric surgery training at the University of Western Australia within the School of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine. The rigorous program has provided him with advanced knowledge of medicine and pharmacology, and a scope of practice to safely and effectively perform elective foot and ankle surgery.

Dr Andrew Knox practices as a General Podiatrist and has special interest in paediatric and developmental foot problems, and orthotic therapy in adults.

He holds a part-time academic appointment at The University of Western Australia as an Assistant Professor where he lectures to students and provides supervision within the UWA Podiatry Clinic. Dr Knox is able to offer podiatry services exclusively for children and adolescents at Perth Paediatrics in West Leederville and general adult podiatry services at Churchill Consulting Suites in Subiaco.
