Attended here after recommendation from a Sports Physiologist after my previous attempts to progress with my torn plantar faciitis had failed.I found a very pleasant Ben Sweeting to be genuinely caring and interested in my plight and proceeded with a very thorough questioning and examination.I had some small devices strapped around each ankle and after using the walking machine, Ben had a clearer view of my underfoot.Ben strapped my foot and gave me specific exercises to begin a gradual loading phase, which was what I was hoping for. He made sure my foot was able to withstand this pressure, with some simple calf raises to begin with.The waiting room was spotless and a provided a comfortable, quiet area to browse the footwear,etc for sale.The young receptionist lad was very personable with a happy smile to greet you when you arrive.I was sent an email of my invoice and a comprehensive report from Ben detailing what we had discussed in our appointment that day.Parking was busy but I was able to find a spot both times.Have had my second appointment with Ben and happy to recommend.

Ben is the best. His understanding of my feet issues and application of treatments and regime of exercises always work to get my feet back to their pain free, optimal confition.

My 16-year-old son has been seeing a podiatrist ever year since he was 2. While we liked his previous podiatrist, it became harder to get appointments and required travelling across town. After reading the 5-star reviews for Sports and Family Podiatry, we decided to give them a try.Caitlin was fantastic. She was friendly, engaging, very thorough, and extremely knowledgeable. She is currently fitting my son with personalised orthotics using the latest technology. The turnaround time is a huge bonus. We got an appointment within a week, and the orthotics will be ready in just one week, compared to the long wait times we were used to.Carolyn at reception was also very friendly and welcoming. We’re really happy with the experience so far and would highly recommend Sports and Family Podiatry.

Sports and Family Podiatry are both professional and personal. Their web page info and data collection was easy to fill out and was comprehensive. So on arrival for the first appointment there was no clip board to bother with. The podiatrist I saw - Caitlin Spencer is simply the best practitioner Ive ever had and that’s important when you suffer from ingrown nails.

Receptionist was very efficient and friendly. Caitlin looked after my needs. Extremely thorough, knowledgeable, gentle. Asked pertinent questions and gave me a few not previously known pointers. The precinct adjoining the Clem Jones Centre at Carina is obviously growing its profile in the “health and wellness” space with a growing list of health professionals setting up. Good parking available as well. Would definitely go back and highly recommend Sports and Family Podiatry at Carina.

Highly recommend Ben at Sports & Family Podiatry! After a toe injury, I had lost hope of returning to sports, but working with Ben over the past year, along with some quality orthotics has given me the support and confidence to get back into exercise. Ben is kind, patient, and took the time to help me understand what I needed to do to enjoy sports again.

I highly recommend Caitlin. I saw her after suffering knee pain for an extended period of time, and had become very severe over the last 12 months. I had had X-rays and physio with no improvement. I had a very thorough examination with Caitlin several months ago. She diagnosed an issue with my feet. Orthotics and exercises have now almost eliminated the pain, and it continues to improve. Some days now are completely pain free. Caitlin is very knowledgeable and was confident in her assessment and diagnosis. I did not realise that feet could affect the rest of your body so much. I am extremely happy with the outcome.

Highly recommend Ben at Sports & Family Podiatry. I had been struggling with knee pain for a while. Ben picked up the problem straight away and with the help of my health fund, I got some very affordable orthotics made and my knee has never been better!

We were so pleased to find Ben! His assessment of my daughter for orthotics was extremely thorough and included diagnostic equipment and software for biomechanics. His explanation of his findings and treatment plan was clear and meaningful. Ben’s caring, friendly and professional approach combined with his expertise ensured we felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for an exceptionally skilled and caring podiatrist.

Ben is possibly the best medical practitioner I’ve ever worked with and probably the best podiatrist I’ve ever seen. Ben is very thorough, very supportive and very understanding. He tailors his treatment and exercises to suit the client. He has a calm and considered approach and doesn’t rush through his appointments. Ben is focused on a long term outcome, not just a short term fix. I appreciate that. Thanks Ben.

I saw Dr Sweeting for an initial consultation a couple of weeks ago after experiencing heel pain. I attended the clinic after reading all of the positive reviews. I was very impressed with Ben's level of knowledge, professionalism and approachability. Ben was spot on with his initial diagnosis (confirmed by subsequent ultrasound). I have also appreciated being able to contact him outside of consultation times to confirm treatment / exercises, plus how he sends an email post consultation to confirm what was discussed. Ben has also been welcoming of having my young children attend the clinic. I have already recommended the clinic to friends. The clinic itself is also very nice!

Fabulous podiatrist who has always gone above and beyond to assist with my many foot issues. Often fits me in when there is an urgent issues even when he has not time and it’s outside hours. Ben’s knowledge of foot issues is extensive and he always try’s to find ways to keep me moving and offer a range of options. Ben explains things very well and is very supportive and reassuring when there are significant issues to be addressed. Cant’t speak more highly of Ben’s approach and knowledge.

I came to Sports & Family Podiatry due to shin pain when running. After diagnosing a dreaded bone stress reaction and evaluating my running form, Ben developed an active recovery plan for me. His approach allowed me to maintain (some) running, accompanied by custom orthotics, cross-training, stretching, and strength work. Ben discussed and adjusted the plan at every consult based on my progress, and I now feel stronger in my running and confident this injury won't reoccur. Thanks Ben!

Libby Crowley

I am very thankful for my experience with Ben. He is very knowledgable, attentive and friendly and has really helped my running recovery - even only over just a few sessions. Thank you so much!

Refreshing to be treated by a health professional who digs deep to find the problem and create solutions for your wellbeing and recovery. Initial appointment included extensive assessment and advice for treatment with exercises provided by email video link alongside summary of appointment. Highly recommend Ben!

Ben was incredibly patient and honest with us when looking at how our toddler hip to knee to foot are developing. I would highly recommend Sports and Family Podiatry for children's podiatry.
