Hi! I'm Jet,

It 's a pleasure to meet you! I'm the owner and principle practitioner at Toetal Health, and I'll be your clinician. I have something to say up front;

Whether you have been plagued by your issue for as long as you can remember and tried everything to get better, or this is your first stop on your journey, the fact that you have taken the time to look this far into the website means you are serious about getting your problem sorted. I commend your dedication!

With that out of the way, time for the formalities. I started my journey into health in 2010, where I completed a Diploma of Remedial Massage, which gave me an appreciation for the bodies complexity and I was hooked. I loved the feeling of people coming into the clinic and leaving feeling relaxed and loose, or ready-to-go for their weekend sport.

I quickly developed a desire to increase my influence on an individuals quality of life, shifting away from reactive, short lived relief, and focusing more on preventative and long care intervention.

This is where I discovered Podiatry. Sports Podiatry in particular in fact. The fact I could identify as a Lower Limb Expert (and having grown up as a Soccer Player had a HUGE influence in this) had me interested. So I enrolled in a Bachelor of Health Science/Master of Podiatric Medicine at Western Sydney University.

Little did I know the Scope that Podiatry has in the community. From weekend warriors with aches and pains, to diabetic feet with impaired sensation, to neurologically impaired feet and legs requiring careful custom management, to painful nails requiring surgical intervention, to children's feet and monitoring their growth. All this potential to help my community had me sold. Four years later I was thrust into the world to achieve what I set out to do!

A few years in the profession and I realised that there is a huge gap in the provision of healthcare. Everyone stays in their lane. And to make matters worse, there is a reluctance to work together for the patients benefit. That, at the core, is why Toetal Health has come to be. I have a vision of a hub where PATIENT-CENTRED care is the model we work by. I'm excited to be working with you to achieve your goal and get you where you want to be!

See you soon,

Jet Whiteman
