Formerly Wimmera Foot & Ankle Clinic, My Foot Dr Wimmera saw many skilled podiatrists treat Wimmera residents and enjoy the community and sites the Wimmera had on offer.
Some highlights of the clinic over the years include treating a Stormtrooper in 2012.
A Western Australian man, Jacob French, walked from Perth to Sydney in a Star Wars Stormtrooper uniform to raise money for Starlight Children's Foundation, a charity for seriously ill children.
The man and his tired feet received complimentary treatment from Dr Chalmers at the time.
All Horsham patients are now being referred to the Ballarat My Foot Dr.
IN OTHER NEWS:
The Ballarat clinic was opened by Dr Adam Chalmers seven years ago; Dr Chalmers also ran My Foot Dr Wimmera and Wimmera Foot & Ankle Clinic when the centre ran under that name.
Patients can make appointments for the Ballarat clinic online at MyFootDr.com.au or contact the toll-free number 1800 366 837.
Other podiatry clinics in the Wimmera include Horsham Physiotherapy and Podiatry and Elite Podiatry Centre. Wimmera Health Care Group's Wimmera Medical Centre and Lister House Medical Clinic also have podiatry services.
