Maddie Parker

Podiatrist
B.Pod (Hons), Cert III & IV Fitness

Maddie is a passionate Northern Beaches podiatrist with a special interest in lower limb musculoskeletal conditions, running-related injuries, and footwear prescription. She collaborates closely with local sports medicine physicians, physiotherapist and general practitioners to deliver personalised, evidence-based care for every patient.

She holds a Bachelor of Podiatry Practice with First Class Honours, with her clinical interests shaped by research in posterior heel pain, which she presented at the ASICS Sports Medicine Conference. Her work has also been published in Footwear Science. Maddie has undertaken further training in running mechanics and injury rehabilitation, learning from some of Australia’s leading physiotherapists and podiatrists.

Before her career in podiatry, Maddie spent over a decade as a professional winter sports athlete, representing New Zealand at national and international levels while training toward the 2018 Winter Olympic Games. She lived for extended periods in Vancouver and Calgary, Canada, where she trained alongside highly regarded sports medicine specialists, physiotherapist and podiatrist . These experiences influenced her clinical perspective and inspired her to establish Sports Podiatry Manly, a practice focused on the management of lower limb musculoskeletal injuries, as well as skin, nail, and blister conditions in active individuals.

Maddie’s treatment approach is grounded in holistic and individualised care. She offers referrals for diagnostic imaging, custom orthotic prescriptions, and applies a range of adjunct therapies, including radial shockwave therapy, dry needling, and joint mobilisations to support injury recovery and performance.

Outside of the clinic, Maddie continues to lead an active lifestyle. After competing in triathlons, including Ironman 70.3 events, she now enjoys recreational running, strength and conditioning.
