    I have had three different types of orthotics from three different 'podiatrists', who think scanning your foot with your leg in the air gets them an accurate image of your foot. What a joke! The end result is your foot sits on top of the device and it's not in it. Now after being recommended to get a referral to Neil and his team at The Foot Alignment Clinic, it was a complete revelation on the process he goes through to produce the orthotics, which are correctly moulded to your feet, to assist you to correct your posture and deficiency in walking mechanics. I'm an active person (tennis, running and cycling) and Neil's orthotics are the best devices I've ever and will have. I can walk/run efficiently, without pain. I had a bad motorcycle accident in 2018 and the result was a badly broken right leg. Neil's orthotics now help me do everything I could do again before the accident. Don't waste your time with the other 'podiatrists' who photocopy your foot, go and see Neil and his professional, friendly team for PROPER othotics which will get you back on track and change your life! Thank you Neil.

    I've had fasciitis in both feet for a decade, and have undergone multiple reconstructive surgeries on my right foot. I had given up on being able to walk down the street with ease, and had thought I would never hike or ski again. I was booked into a pain management clinic as a last resort, when my GP suggested trying the Foot Alignment Clinic, following another patient's positive experience. This was the third podiatrist I've consulted, and the first set of orthotics that have made a distinct difference. Although this is not a cure, my quality of life has improved markedly, and the pain reduction is significant. Knees, hips and back have all benefited, and I was even able to ski again this year. Amazing. Neil and his team are knowledgeable and friendly. Take the leap and try them out, you'll be glad you did.

    My son has been playing cricket for the past 8 years however at the beginning of last season he suffered sever's. Him playing cricket last season had no glimmer of hope until we met Neil Smith from FAC. His initial consultation/assessment gave us assurance that within a week he would be able to walk with minimum pain. Indeed within a week he manage to play 80overs game. We highly recommend Neil Smith to anyone with lower limb deformities. They should seek his advice and we urge every sports person to not neglect foot related injuries. We thank Neil Smith for his support and his contribution to the sporting community.

    Highly Recommend! Beth was great to work with, she's very passionate and experienced in her work. She was able to answered any query I had and was thorough throughout our appointment. They have a special device they use to align your feet to find inner soles that comfortably fit your feet. It's completely unique to anything else I've seen (this method should be the standard). I've had custom inner soles from other podiatrists but these ones are the best I've ever owned.

    I decided to use the Foot Alignment Clinic because of the many positive reviews I read online, and I was not disappointed with the service I received from both Neil and Beth from beginning to end. I had worn the same pair of custom-built orthotics for over 20 years never thinking they would ever need replacing. However, in recent years they didn’t feel quite right when walking and I felt the imbalance in other areas of my body. I have now worn my new orthotics from Neil’s clinic for a few months. They are a smug fit, rather comfortable, and I have none of the prior issues I had with my feet or with walking in general. Neil is very knowledgeable and has had many years of experience in this field and combined with his use of the latest technology you can be confident and assured of the best result.

    Beth was wonderful. She is very good at what she does. Despite having a “complex case” with my legs and feet, she was able to create custom in soles for me that are extremely comfortable and have already helped alleviate the pain in my knees. Best experience I have had with a podiatrist. Would highly recommend.

    Great experience with Neil who saw my Kindergarten-aged-son for his first orthotics appointment. Neil is so easy going and fun with kids. Thank you Neil, Beth and Rachel for a 5 star experience, and great quality orthotics with a quick turnaround! I will highly recommend Foot Alignment Clinic to family and friends.

    top marks to Neil Lenore & their team. We started at their clinic earlier this year both for Orthotics with Neil and podiatry with Lenore. Having previously experienced poor results at other podiatry and orthotic providers we were most surprised at the professionalism and excellent results of both Neil's orthotics and Lenore's podiatry. We are now converts to the clinic and highly recommend their services.

    Following knee replacement needed new orthotics. Recommended by a friend also in rehab. The testing equipment was exceptional and the service very professional. Eight months later I'm powering on.

    Neil and his team are miracle workers! His knowledge and methods are first class and he can quickly determine the root of a problem and devise orthotics that address it directly rather than generally.

  • 5/5 TiggerEm 5 years ago on Google
    I’m bio-mechanically faulty so Neil’s orthotics are an absolute life (knee and hip too!) saver. If I didn’t have these I’d be in a higher level of pain and unable to do the things I love. Thanks so much to the legends at the Foot Alignment Clinic.

    My son who is 12 years old had severe knee pain & Neil Smith gave a thorough inspection of his knee and gave my son orthotics which have significantly reduced his knee pain and he can participate in all of his sporting activities without a problem. Thanks Neil! 10/10 would recommend!

  • 5/5 Thiago W. 1 year ago on Google
    The best discovery ever. Great customer service. Neil and his crew are amazing. He is highly experienced and will check your foot with the best technology and techniques. I've been struggling with foot pain for 3 years and always postponed my orthotics. I should have come to Neil way before. Now I'm fixed and no more pain.

    in the past 3 years I visited 3 podiatrists, 2 GPs and 1 skin specialists who provided me with a variety of diagnosis and interventions for the severe pain that I experienced at night in my big toes. I gave up and assumed that I would live with this extreme disconfort for ever. Then a friend recommended the Foot Alignment Clinic in Leichhardt. I laughted; my feet are in good nick, healthy looking and they did not need re-alignment but I decided to give it a go. I had nothing to loose. Neil demonstrated to me why I had so much pain at the end of a busy day; his assessment was based on scientific knowledge and skills. I am not cured and I need to wear orthoptic soles but they are not visible and they fit well in my shoes. My sleep in no longer interrupted by inflammed plantar tendons and muscles Thank you Neil

    Incredible Instant Relief After having ankle reconstructive surgery and remaining in pain or a further 2 years post surgery, it was time to find a solution. Orthotics were a recommendation suggested by my osteopath. I had tried orthotics twice before my surgery and both times it made no difference, that is until I went to see Neil and the team at the Foot Alignment Clinic. At the consultation, I recognised immediately that the technology used by the Foot Alignment Clinic was completely different to my previous 2 experiences. After picking my orthotics up, less than a week later, I immediately started wearing them and the difference was instant. I had a game of golf scheduled, the third day of wearing my new orthotics and to my surprise when I arrived at the golf course we were not permitted to use golf carts. As I had never previously been able to walk a golf course due to the ankle pain, I decided to give my orthotics the ultimate test. Yew I asked the full 7kms and couldn’t believe that I had zero pain. All I can say is that these new orthotics and the technology that is used in order to make them definitely works and is nothing like the previous ones I experienced.
