Kirstine began working in private practice before establishing Highett Podiatry in 1997.

With a wealth of over 25 years clinical experience, Kirstine has invested in building her practice to become a successful and advanced podiatry clinic, offering a breadth of trusted experience in all aspects of podiatry.

Kirstine is a very nurturing practitioner and has developed a method of care that is both beneficial and supportive for all her patients. She is committed to ensuring her all her patients and their families are educated through every step of the treatment plan to help them make informed decisions.

Kirstine is known for her honesty and integrity (along with all her staff) when it comes to orthotic prescription. It is her number one prerogative to make sure her orthotic prescriptions are “spot on” and she prides herself on her follow up to ensure each of her patients are very happy with their prescribed orthotics.

Time spent outside the practice, you will find Kirstine enjoying travel, running around her busy daughter, Imogen and spending down time at home with her partner Jason.
