Grace Buchan, Podiatrist

Grace is an experienced podiatrist originally from Melbourne who recently relocated to the NSW Riverina area. Grace was seeking a lifestyle change so she spent the past 12 months working in the agricultural industry. Grace returns to podiatry with a passion for helping people. She has five years of experience of sports podiatry in Melbourne, particularly focused on lower limb injuries. As a podiatrist, Grace finds fulfilment in educating and empowering her clients to understand and manage their injuries, helping them achieve their health goals and prevent re-injury. Grace chose to work at Active Foot Clinic due to her alignment with her values of kindness, compassion, and teamwork.

Grace has an extensive elite sporting background played competitive football in the VFLW for the past 6 season with St Kilda, Collingwood and is now currently part of the GWS AFLW squad. Locally, she has recently played for the Griffith Swans in their local women’s AFL competition. Prior to sticking with her passion for AFL Grace played elite level tennis and soccer. 

Outside of work and football, Grace enjoys outdoor activities like hiking and swimming, spending time with family and friends, and exploring the region's cafes looking for the best coffee spot! She feels a strong sense of community in the Riverina area and appreciates its proximity to open spaces and nature. 

You will find Grace primarily based in our Leeton clinic providing quality podiatry care to Leeton and the wider MIA community.
