Veronica is a registered Podiatrist with the Australian Podiatry Association, having successfully completed her studies at Queensland University of Technology. Prior to her career in podiatry, she held a position as a Nurse, obtaining her Bachelor of Nursing from the Australian Catholic University.
During her time as a nurse, Veronica specialised in geriatrics, working in nursing homes across Brisbane and even managing some of them. Her decision to return to study stemmed from her realisation of the pressing need for podiatrists and lower limb specialists within the geriatric community.
Upon earning her Podiatry degree, Veronica embarked on her professional journey on the Sunshine Coast, where she worked in a clinic catering to a diverse array of patients, spanning from elderly individuals to
athletes and children.
She has successfully completed The Basic Course for Lower Limb Acupuncture, and takes immense pride in viewing her patients as unique individuals with specific lower limb concerns. Veronica’s approach to lower limb care is holistic and multifaceted, focusing on the personalised goals and outcomes of each patient. She places significant emphasis on fostering patient independence and supporting their ongoing participation in activities.
