Dr Vanessa Hadchiti is a podiatrist at Bexley Podiatry: Foot & Ankle Clinic who has practised since 2002. She holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Podiatry (2002), a Master of International Public Health (2022) and a Master of Infectious Diseases Intelligence (2022). Her career has been spent in private practice, diagnosing and treating foot pain with a patient-centred approach.
Her experience spans clinics across Sydney, where she has treated a wide range of patients from professional athletes through to retirees. Vanessa's specialised interest is the biomechanics of the lower limb, which shapes how she assesses gait, footwear and load to work out what is actually driving a patient's pain rather than only where it hurts.
Beyond her clinical practice, Vanessa is passionate about international humanitarian work and has volunteered in regions including Africa and the Caribbean, contributing her expertise to underserved communities. In her free time she enjoys outdoor adventures and nature-related hobbies.
