Our Vision

To create a place where everyday Australians can access the healthcare they need, in their local area, as easily as possible.

A gap in the system

We recognised a significant gap in the way people navigate healthcare online. There are plenty of ways to search for healthcare, and multiple ways to access it once you know what you need.

What is missing, however, is a simple end-to-end service that helps identify your health needs, finds the right quality healthcare provider in your area, connects you with that provider and helps facilitate your appointment.

That is the gap Footpath Health was created to solve.

A shared vision

Simon and Trent came together with a shared vision: to make navigating healthcare easier, more personalised and, ultimately, seamless.

With Trent’s clinical background in podiatry and allied health, and Simon’s experience across business development, strategic partnerships and technology-enabled services, podiatry was the natural place to start.

Footpath Health provides access to podiatry clinics across Australia, helping people move from understanding their symptoms to finding appropriate care in their area within minutes.
