Biography

David Bugg is a director of Sydney City Podiatry and has consulted at Holdsworth House since 2001. David has extensive knowledge of all podiatric complaints and specialises in lower limb biomechanics, sports/activity-related injuries and orthotic therapy. He is regularly invited by the national media to share his expertise in these areas. He has been a guest lecturer at the University of Western Sydney and a clinical supervisor at their podiatry teaching clinic.

As a former AFL player, David has a keen interest in the treatment and prevention of injuries in athletes of all ages, whether they be professional sportspersons or those who like to keep fit and pain free. David's extensive experience comes from years of treating elite athletes including professional soccer, AFL, golf and tennis players. The Sydney City Podiatry group are podiatrists to national soccer teams Sydney FC and Central Coast Mariners in the A-league and draw on this 10 year experience in their patient management.

If you have a Health Care or Pension Card the fee may vary, please contact reception on (02) 9331 7546 to discuss.

If you have private health insurance cover for Physiotherapy, we can claim this on the spot and you will only need to pay the gap.

Any consumables, surgeries or prescribed treatments (e.g. boots, therabands, crutches) will be charged on top of the above standard care and consult fee. Your physiotherapist will be able to advise during your consultation.

EPC Referral: Enhanced Primary Care Referral, provides you access to x5 Medicare rebates per year.

How EPC works:

An Enhanced Primary Care Plan (EPC) is a referral that is written by your GP which provides eligible patients with Medicare-subsidised allied health appointments, like physio, podiatry, chiropractic, Dietitian, etc. An EPC may also be referred to as a GP Management Plan (GPMP).

Who is eligible?

To be eligible for an EPC or GPMP, a patient must have a chronic or terminal medical condition with or without complex care needs.

​A chronic health condition is defined as one that has been present for 6 months or more. It includes, but is not limited to, asthma, cancer, cardiovascular illness, diabetes mellitus, musculoskeletal conditions and stroke.

Your GP will need to assess your eligibility for an EPC plan.
