Foot Matters Podiatry is a family owned and operated Podiatry business in Avonhead. We provide all aspects of podiatry and all ages, from all over Christchurch. We have satellite clinics in Greymouth and Westport. 

Biomechanical and sports podiatry, orthotics, aged care, children's feet, ingrown toenails, footwear advice and sales, computerised gait analysis and podiatry retail products are all services we provide. We are ACC registered and ACC can help with the cost of your orthotics.

Our Podiatrists, Matthew and Kate, both have over 20 years of Podiatry experience and Matthew is one of a small handful of Podiatry NZ Sports Podiatrists. 

At Foot Matters we are highly skilled health professionals, trained to deal with the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of medical and surgical conditions of the feet and lower limbs.

YOUR FEET MATTER! To you and US! Being in pain is no fun, and neither is not being able to do the things you want to.  We like nothing better than to put a smile on your face and to sort the problem that is slowing you down and get you back on your feet. 

We are really proud of our fine new clinic in Avonhead, Christchurch. We have the latest equipment so we can treat you professionally and in comfort– because we love what we do and we take your foot health seriously. We know your feet matter and so does your comfort.

Foot Matters Podiatry creates a welcoming environment to all of its clients. 
We want people to feel part of our business which in turns means they are part of their own foot care program.
 From the moment people contact us for an appointment until we have finished their treatment and beyond; our clients are encouraged to maintain friendly contact with all of our staff.  
If anyone needs assistance or guidance on any level of podiatry all our doors are open to work through things together.
We like to describe ourselves as ‘relaxed but professional’. We provide the best possible service and care in an environment people feel relaxed in. 
When clients feel happy in our care they respond well to any treatments and we believe we provide a better service for this reason as we understand our clients’ needs and demands.
Your feet matter- to you and to us!
