When April walked the wards as a nurse, she never knew her interest in wound care would turn into a whole new career path in podiatry. 🦶 👣

As an Advanced Podiatrist, April works with teams including infectious diseases, vascular, orthopaedic, endocrinology, diabetes and a number of allied health colleagues at both Redcliffe and Caboolture Hospital.

"In my 13 years as a Podiatrist, I have worked with patients with a number of unique conditions relating to their feet, ankles and lower limbs," April shares.

"People who have an interest in physiotherapy and rehabilitation should consider a career in podiatry as there are so many physiological and structural connections that relate back to our feet."

An exciting new Podiatrist Trainee Program for podiatry students has opened, with those looking for a leg-up in a new career encouraged to apply here. 👇

When he's not busy treating patients, Dr Dinesh Palipana OAM advocates for diversity and inspires others to do the same.

Recently Dinesh visited his old stomping ground of Caboolture where he completed high school, speaking to hospital staff about the importance of inclusion.

"It was once said that if everyone is thinking the same, then no one is thinking," he said.

"To solve the modern challenges of our healthcare system, a variety of perspectives for out-of-the-box thinking is critical.

"I was honoured to spend time back in the Caboolture region, they are such a beautiful team," he added. 💞
