About Scott Rayment

I'm driven by a strong desire to help people move comfortably and perform at their best. With extensive experience in multi-disciplinary sports medicine clinics, I've managed complex injuries across both amateur and professional sporting environments, including athletes in Netball (SSN), Basketball (NCAA & NBL1), Soccer (NPL & Women's FIFA), Football (VFL, VFLW & AFL), Golf (VGL), and Australian Athletics.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practice. I'm currently completing research investigating first MTP joint (big toe) osteoarthritis on MRI, and I serve as the principal podiatrist in the rooms of a Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon, where I screen and assess complex referred patients. This collaborative work requires a high level of expertise in reading imaging (X-ray, MRI) and diagnosing complex foot and ankle conditions.

I hold an Endorsement for Scheduled Medicines (ESM), which enables me to prescribe medications and administer corticosteroid injections when clinically appropriate, providing comprehensive care without the need for additional referrals.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Applied Science and Masters in Podiatric Practice

• Bachelor of Science - Double Major in Immunology & Physiology

• Endorsement for Scheduled Medicines (ESM)

Professional Memberships:

• Member of Australasian Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine (AAPSM)

• Member of Sports Medicine Australia (SMA)

• Member of Australian Podiatry Association (APodA)
