Holding a Graduate Diploma in Sports Medicine from Melbourne University, Kane is an APOD Accredited Sports Podiatrist—a distinction that marks him as an expert in managing the high-performance demands of athletes and active individuals on the Central Coast.

- Structural Foot Conditions: Expert management of bunions (hallux valgus), hammer toes, and biomechanical alignment.
- Nail Surgery & Care: Permanent solutions for painful ingrown toenails and fungal conditions.
With a background in Exercise and Sports Science, Kane integrates sophisticated Gait Analysis to identify the root cause of injury. Whether you are a basketballer—a sport Kane has played his entire life—or a runner, he specialises in:
- Injury Prevention: Identifying biomechanical “weak links” before they lead to downtime.
- Paediatric Podiatry: Managing growing pains and walking patterns in children.
- Diabetic Foot Care: Comprehensive assessments to maintain long-term foot health and mobility.
Returning to his roots on the Central Coast, Kane is a member of the Australian Podiatry Association and is committed to achieving pain-free outcomes for his neighbours in Erina and Tuggerah. When he isn’t in the clinic, you’ll find him staying active on our local hiking trails or at the beach.
