Ben Mifsud is a podiatrist based in Dural, NSW. You’ll find the practice at Unit 3-4, 286 New Line Road, Dural NSW 2158. Ben’s focus is general podiatry, which is all about keeping feet comfortable and walking well.
Foot problems can start small, then slowly get more annoying. Sometimes it’s a rough patch of skin that keeps coming back. Other times it’s sharper pain, swelling, or a toe that won’t settle. Ben helps people with day-to-day foot issues, from everyday aches to problems that need proper care.
One of the main things he does is foot examinations. This is more than just a quick look. It usually means checking how your feet are shaped, how you stand and move, and where the pressure is going. Over time, small changes in how you walk can lead to pain, so getting the basics right matters.
Ben also provides ingrown toenail treatment. Ingrown nails can be really uncomfortable, especially when they get infected or keep digging into the skin. Treatment can vary depending on what’s going on, but the aim is usually to calm things down and reduce the chance of it coming back.
If your feet are giving you trouble because of pressure or support issues, orthotic fitting can help. Orthotics are designed to support the foot and improve comfort. In many cases, they can make walking feel more stable and take stress off sore areas.
Ben’s clinic also supports people dealing with foot pain. Foot pain has lots of causes, and it can feel different depending on the person. At times it’s worse with walking, at times it shows up after being on your feet. Ben focuses on understanding what you’re dealing with, then mapping out practical next steps.
Appointments are usually about finding what’s causing the problem and making sure the plan fits your everyday life. Whether you’re dealing with an ingrown toenail, needing orthotics, or just want your feet checked, Ben looks at the whole picture and keeps things simple and clear.
