Dr Smith is a specialist foot and ankle surgeon with expertise in keyhole (minimally invasive) techniques, bunion correction, and sports-related foot and ankle surgery.
Dr Mike Smith is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon specialising in foot and ankle surgery. He completed his orthopaedic training through the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and undertook subspecialty fellowship training in foot and ankle surgery.
Dr Smith has a particular interest in minimally invasive (keyhole) foot surgery, including the MICA technique for bunion correction, which offers smaller incisions, less pain, and faster recovery than traditional open surgery.
He also specialises in ankle arthritis, chronic ankle instability, Achilles tendon disorders, metatarsalgia, and plantar fasciitis.
Dr Smith works closely with podiatrists, physiotherapists and other health professionals to ensure comprehensive, patient-centred management of complex foot and ankle conditions.
