Mary-Ellen graduated from the Auckland University of Technology in 2010 and has been providing high quality care for people on the Tweed Coast and Northern Rivers ever since.

The Foot Stop’s reach quickly expanded as knowledge of the convenient and high quality service spread to the Gold Coast.
Mary-Ellen has a passion for podiatry and has worked with elite dancers, athletes, and gold medal winning Paralympians, as well as weekend warriors in a wide range of sporting pursuits.

Neda Piri
Podiatrist
Neda grew up in Brisbane and comes from an Iranian background. She graduated at QUT in 2017 with a Bachelor of Podiatry. She has been fortunate enough to be exposed to a completely different culture and speak another language – Farsi. In addition to visiting Iran frequently, she is fascinated with other cultures and (before 2020) often travelled to visit countries vastly different to Australia; such as Japan, Thailand, and Italy.
Neda has always been very passionate about holistic health and treating the patient rather than their condition. She fell in love with podiatry because of the nature of our work and the rapport we build with patients. Neda appreciates how podiatric services can make genuine differences in someone’s life. She enjoys all aspects of podiatry, in particular the general nail and skin care.
INTERESTS
In her spare time Neda loves to stay fit and healthy by mixing up her workouts. She also thoroughly enjoys learning to cook and bake and is always aspiring to be as good as her mum.
