Trevor Proskewitz, Podiatrist
BSc Hons (UK) ND Pod (SA)

Trevor qualified as a podiatrist in 1988 in Johannesburg South Africa, and went into private practice shortly thereafter. As a keen cyclist and with experience in marathon running, he has a special interest in sports biomechanics. This facilitated his involvement in the Run/Walk for Life programme – a medically sound, scientific fitness plan for people of all ages, weight and fitness levels. Another area of specific interest to Trevor is the developing paediatric foot – the importance of recognising and treating both malformations and gait abnormalities in children.

Trevor is certified as a PinPointe™FootLaser™ provider used for the management of Fungal nails, and has been trained in the use of Orthema digital technology to manufacture custom made orthotics. He gives talks on The Diabetic Foot, The Aging Foot, and The Running Foot. From 1998 to 2002 he served as Chairman of the South African Podiatry Association and lectured final year podiatry students for 11 years in South Africa. He has also sat as a Councillor to the Australian Podiatry Association. Trevor believes in staying true to his beliefs of being a general podiatrist who also isn’t afraid to treat the ‘tough feet issues’ when the need arises.
