Meet the Team
Nina graduated from the CIT school of Podiatry in 1999, worked in Australia for a while, before returning home to NZ. Since then she has worked at practices in the Manawatu and Wairarapa. One of the most common questions she gets asked is “how can you deal with feet each day!” A fancy reply would be to say, well actually “The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art” (thanks Leonardo da Vinci). But really it just gives her satisfaction to send people who come in with painful feet, out of our clinic with improved foot function and relief from pain. The chairside chats can be pretty interesting too! Outside of clinic she is part of a busy family, so when time permits she enjoys walking, cycling, and a quiet corner with a good book.
