About us
Dr James Ferrie (Podiatrist) is the founder of My Sports Podiatrist.
We specialise in the diagnosis and treatment of complex foot, ankle, and lower leg pain. Combining advanced regenerative medicine with expert biomechanical assessment, we help patients overcome chronic pain, restore function, and return to the activities they enjoy—without surgery wherever possible.
Podiatrists, physiotherapists, doctors and pain management specialists routinely refer their most difficult foot and ankle cases to the clinic. James lectures throughout Australia and internationally on diagnostic ultrasound, shockwave therapy and regenerative approaches — and teaches these techniques to other health professionals as a Swiss DolorClast® Clinical Instructor, clinical instructor for Zedu, and international ambassador for POCUS.
Please note that as a dedicated musculoskeletal and interventional clinic, we are not currently accepting general foot care patients.
Clarity Through Precision Diagnostics
Complex pain requires more than assumptions. Our on-site high-resolution imaging and advanced biomechanical assessment systems provide detailed insights into the underlying cause of your condition, allowing us to make informed clinical decisions and deliver more effective treatment outcomes.
About Dr James Ferrie
James is a musculoskeletal and interventional podiatrist with advanced postgraduate training in diagnostic ultrasound, regenerative medicine, and ultrasound-guided foot and ankle procedures.
He has a particular interest in helping patients with complex foot, ankle, and lower-limb conditions that have failed to respond to conventional treatment. Many of the patients who attend the clinic have already tried physiotherapy, orthotics, injections, or multiple opinions and are still searching for answers.
James combines advanced diagnostic imaging, biomechanical assessment, regenerative medicine, and ultrasound-guided interventions to identify the underlying cause of pain and develop targeted treatment plans. His approach focuses on understanding why a problem has occurred, rather than simply managing symptoms.
He is passionate about helping patients reduce pain, restore function, and return to the activities that matter most to them while avoiding surgery wherever possible.
"The best outcomes come from understanding the whole person, identifying the root cause of the problem, and creating a treatment plan that aligns with what matters most to each patient."
James has completed advanced postgraduate training in ultrasound and fluoroscopy-guided foot and ankle procedures through the Interventional Orthobiologics Foundation (USA) and is certified in lower-extremity musculoskeletal diagnostic ultrasound.
His areas of clinical interest include:
- Regenerative medicine and orthobiologic therapies
- Chronic foot, ankle, and lower-limb pain
- Musculoskeletal injuries and sports medicine
- Diagnostic ultrasound
- Ultrasound-guided perineural hydrodissection
- Focused Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
- Minimally invasive and ultrasound-guided procedures
- Minor surgical interventions
