Paul Graham
Paul graduated in 1987 from Lincoln Institute, now part of La Trobe University. Having purchased the client base of a retiring chiropodist Paul commenced practice upstairs at 33 Yarra street Geelong, and at the Millar Street Clinic in Colac. After several years the Geelong practice grew to a full week and the Colac practice was sold.
Under the name Geelong and Bellarine Podiatry Centre the practice grew at Geelong and Drysdale and in August 1993 the practice moved to 209 Malop Street, Geelong. In 1995 we changed our name to Total Care Podiatry to better reflect our patient care focus.
From the very beginning of his career Paul Graham has aimed at achieving the best possible diagnostic facilities and treatment for his patients. The facilities of the biomechanics rooms were originally modeled on Lincoln Institute with full length walking platform, remote video camera and variable speed treadmill. The addition of a mural in one of the rooms ensures a memorable and positive experience for our younger patients.
