ACE Team

The ACE Team · Practitioners & staff

Meet the ACE Health Centre team.

Podiatrists, physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, pilates instructors, massage therapists, dietitians and reception staff. Multidisciplinary by design — so the people working on different parts of your health are actually talking to each other.

What “multidisciplinary” means in practice.

Most allied-health clinics specialise narrowly. We don’t. The reason is simple: most of the conditions we treat — chronic foot and lower-limb pain, post-surgical recovery, complex injuries, chronic health conditions — benefit from input from multiple disciplines working off the same plan.

Inside the clinic that means a podiatrist who sees a patient with knee pain can walk five metres to discuss it with a physio. A physio rehabbing an ACL can hand the strength progression to an exercise physiologist. A patient managing diabetic foot care sees a podiatrist for the foot, an exercise physiologist for the metabolic side, and a dietitian for the nutrition side — with all three communicating.

It also means the practitioners are choosing to work in a multidisciplinary environment specifically because they value that collaboration. The team is here because the team-based care matters to them.

How we approach it

Three steps from first visit to outcome.

01
Assessment.
Book any service through online booking or by phone. We’ll match you with the right practitioner for your concern.
02
Treatment plan.
At the first appointment we ask about your history, your goals, and which other practitioners you’re working with. If we think you’d benefit from input from another of our disciplines, we’ll say so.
03
Review and progression.
Inter-practitioner communication happens behind the scenes, so you don’t have to retell your story at every appointment. We summarise back to your GP at appropriate intervals.
HICAPS on the spot with every major fund · Medicare GPCCMP, DVA, NDIS & WorkCover accepted where applicable.
