Called up Friday and explained my toe nail issue. I was booked in for an appointment first thing on the Monday. I just seen Tim and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Extremely knowledgeable and super friendly. The girls on reception also took great care of me. 30mins later and I was sorted!
Had a 10/10 service with Tim and couldn’t recommend him enough! He sorted my problem there and then in such a professional and supportive manner. He even sent me away with an instruction pack for aftercare as well as sent me video recapping aftercare etc which was super super helpful and contributed the overall supportive feel of treatment with him. Thank you again😊😊
I visited Pride Podiatry at Collins St (Melbourne CBD) on 19 September 2024 to get my feet checked. I had pain from walking and had an annoying corn on one of my toes for months.Tim was amazing. I was feeling a bit nervous, not knowing what to expect as it was my first time visiting a podiatrist. We had a chat about my concerns, while Tim checked my feet and shoes. I had 3 pairs of shoes with me and he was so nice to check them all.Then we proceeded to check my gait and found the issue. Tim then got me to do some exercises and gave me a plan to work with at home.He also sent a reminder email at the end of the session about the treatment plan plus a lovely personal video summarising what we talked about during the session. There is no need to make a mental note of everything discussed. How good is that?If you are unsure like me before this, bite the bullet and make an appointment with Pride Podiatry. Don't wait months before visiting a podiatrist. I wished I had visited sooner.The reception staffs at Pride Podiatry are also friendly and lovely.
Saw Tim for the first time today, his friendly demeanour puts you at ease, and his expertise had me fixed up and on my way in no time. Highly recommend!
Had a very chronic problem with calf pain that no other physio could figure out, tried everything, but nothing workedUntil I saw Tim at pure physiotherapy! The passion and knowledge he has for his job is like nothing I have seen before. He truly wanted to find out what was wrong with me and fix itThanks to his hard work, research and discussion with peers he found the extremely niche and specific problem I was having and was able to diagnose it to be eventually fixed!Thanks Tim, you are the best!
I have been experiencing ongoing pain in my right heel over the last year which has been causing me trouble regularly. I booked an appointment with Tim at Pride podiatry and had a fantastic experience. From start to finish, Tim was friendly, knowledgable and professional. Following our session, Tim promptly followed up with an email summarising the potential reason for my pain, complete with an overview of advice and exercises tailored to help improve my pain. Highly recommend, especially fellow athletes – thanks Tim!
I saw Tim Mulholland for an ankle sprain and smattering of waxing and waning tendon/muscle issues in my feet. I’m visiting Melbourne from the US and he got me in right away, did a thorough assessment, and helped me understand my problems and how we can solve them. I felt immediately better and hopeful. Tim was sincere and demonstrated clear expertise in his field. His communication was outstanding and he summarized our visit with an email and video message. This is truly the standard of how medicine should be practiced!
I had a great experience with Tim, he quickly diagnosed my ailment and recommended simple solutions to recover soon. Highly recommend. Thanks Tim!
I’m extremely grateful that I found Pride Podiatry and had the opportunity to meet Dr Tim. I went to Pride Podiatry to treat my achilles tendon and I received incredible treatment from Dr Tim. All of Dr Tim’s explanations were super comprehensive and helpful! He is super friendly and caring. He even sent me a personal video at the end of the session to summarize what we discussed today and remind me of the steps i need to take for a full recovery.I’m also grateful for the lovely lady at the reception who welcomed me warmly! Thank you, Pride Podiatry!
My first time going to podiatrist and Tim has been excellent explaining the issue with my foot pain. Thank you Tim for those exercises tip, I can feel the difference already from our morning session.
I am new to podiatry services and Tim was patient and clear. Answered all questions and treated my feet with good care and advice. Highly recommended.
Tim was outstanding! Very friendly, super informative and his style of patent care is second to none. Highly recommend anyone to go and see him. I had an issue with my nail I’d wanted to get sorted out and he had a really good treatment plan and suggestion.
