Lead Clinician | Physiotherapist & Podiatrist
Helping Patients Solve Complex Foot and Ankle Problems
Cameron Collins is a dual-qualified Physiotherapist and Podiatrist with a strong focus on foot and ankle rehabilitation. As one of New Zealand's few clinicians qualified in both professions, Cameron combines rehabilitation, manual therapy, orthotic therapy, footwear modification, and bracing solutions to provide a comprehensive approach to foot and ankle care.
He has extensive experience helping patients with persistent pain, recurring injuries, post-operative rehabilitation, and complex foot and ankle conditions that have not responded to previous treatment.

What to Expect During Your First Appointment

During your consultation, Cameron will:
Discuss your symptoms and history
Assess movement, strength, and function
Identify contributing biomechanical factors
Explain the diagnosis in clear language
Develop a personalised treatment plan
Discuss treatment options and expected outcomes
The goal is to ensure you leave with a clear understanding of the problem, the treatment plan, and the next steps required for recovery.
Cameron's Approach to Treatment
Cameron believes successful treatment starts with understanding why a problem developed in the first place.
His dual qualifications in physiotherapy and podiatry allow him to assess both the mechanical and functional contributors to pain and injury. This broader perspective helps identify factors that may be overlooked when focusing on only one aspect of care.
By combining rehabilitation, hands-on treatment, orthotic therapy, footwear interventions, bracing, and exercise prescription, Cameron aims to create treatment plans that deliver meaningful and lasting results.
