Epping Podiatry Centre is a podiatry practice at 40 Rawson Street, Epping, a short walk from Epping station. The practice was established by Brent Gray and has been serving the local community since 1997.
We treat foot, ankle and lower limb problems, including musculoskeletal pain, heel pain, skin and nail conditions, and diabetes-related foot care. We also provide foot orthoses, both pre-formed and fully custom 3D printed, and nail surgery.
Referrals are welcome, and we work with GPs on Enhanced Primary Care plans.
Both of our Podiatrists have practised in the High Risk Foot Service at a leading Sydney tertiary hospital, where complex diabetes-related and wound problems are managed, and between them they have over twenty-five years in practice. That shared background is what shapes the way this practice approaches diabetes and preventative foot care. How we assess diabetic feet.
Our Podiatrists
Phillip Corne
Phil is known for combining clinical expertise with a genuinely patient-first approach. His philosophy is simple: listen carefully, explain clearly and always recommend what is right for the patient, not simply what can be done.
He has been working as a Podiatrist for over 22 years, striving for excellence in all facets of the profession. He initially spent 13 years developing his private practice skills at Ryde Podiatry Centre.
Phil has dedicated most of his professional time to the High Risk Foot Service at Royal North Shore Hospital, working there for 20 years as a Senior Podiatrist, credentialled in Advanced Wound Management. He has recently stepped away from that role to focus his efforts on running Epping Podiatry Centre, and still works one day a week with Mental Health and Drug and Alcohol (MHDA) inpatients at Macquarie Rehab Hospital.
He spent six years as a Clinical Supervisor at the UniClinic at Western Sydney University, and particularly enjoyed teaching and supervising the surgery component for fourth-year students. He has presented educational tutorials at the Australian Podiatry Association conference, and remains an occasional guest lecturer at Western Sydney University, presenting the podiatry and foot component of the Diabetes Educators course.
Whether you need routine foot care, a diabetic foot assessment, nail surgery to treat an ingrown toenail, or orthotic prescription to address biomechanical foot concerns, he provides honest, practical advice and a clear treatment plan tailored to you.
Rita Ollino
Rita is a qualified Podiatrist committed to helping people maintain healthy feet and stay active throughout every stage of life.
Alongside private practice, Rita works within the NSW public health system in a High Risk Foot Service, caring for patients with complex foot conditions. That work keeps her current with the evidence, and she brings it into every consultation here.
Her primary clinical interest is diabetes and preventative foot care, with a strong focus on the early identification of foot concerns and personalised treatment that supports long-term foot health. Rita enjoys working closely with patients to educate them about their feet and to help them take an active role in preventing future problems.
She also has a keen interest in the assessment and management of musculoskeletal foot and lower limb conditions, providing evidence-based care to reduce pain, improve function and support mobility.
Rita believes the best outcomes come from taking the time to listen, understand what a patient wants to get back to, and build a practical treatment plan that fits their life. Whether you need routine foot care, a diabetic foot assessment or treatment for foot pain, her aim is professional, compassionate and individualised care that helps you move comfortably and confidently.
