Leaders in Orthotics & Podiatry

Receive professional, caring and personalised podiatry services in Darwin today. Swan Podiatry and Orthotics is a deliberately small, private podiatry clinic established to provide specialist foot, ankle and lower limb care. We provide tailored, personalised services aimed at treating the patient, from elite athletes to people just wanting to start exercising.


The foot is an amazingly complex structure allowing us to perform many everyday functions that we tend to take for granted–until something goes wrong. It is therefore crucial for us to seek expert advice to help in keeping us happy, healthy and pain-free. Swan Podiatry is conveniently located within Movement for Life Physiotherapy in Coconut Grove, Darwin. Our main clinic is ideal for those living in Darwin and its suburbs, with a weekly satellite clinic established to help service Katherine and other surrounding rural and remote regions.

Professional Podiatry Assessments in Darwin

Our podiatry services apply best practices and new technologies that allow us to provide top of the line care. During your initial appointment we discuss your issue in depth, making sure you are listened to, and that your treatment goals align with what we can provide. We will do assessments of the feet and legs while standing, moving and sitting so we can find out the underlying cause of the issue and can create a management plan to suit.


We may require referring for further imaging to determine the exact cause of symptoms, such as an x-ray or ultrasound. HICAPS terminals in all clinics allow on-the-spot claiming with private health insurance, which means you only need to pay the remaining gap. We accept referrals from Medicare and DVA if you have a valid referral from your GP.

More About Us

My name is Cable Mills and I am the principal podiatrist at Swan Podiatry and Orthotics. After graduating from Charles Stuart University in Albury/Thurgoona in 2011, I have worked in busy podiatry practices in both Darwin and Melbourne. I have a keen interest in sports injuries, orthotic therapy and ingrown nail surgery.


I chose to study Podiatry as I have a passion for sport and am interested in biomechanics and the way the body moves and works. I enjoy working with and talking to people and find it rewarding that I can make a difference to people’s lives. I first saw a podiatrist myself during high school, who prescribed orthotics, which really helped me continue with my sport (and no, I do not have a foot fetish!).


My wife and I relocated back to Darwin in early 2016 and this is when Swan Podiatry and Orthotics first begun. Swan Podiatry has been operating from day one at the Coconut Grove practice, with the addition of the satellite clinics in Katherine later that year. My aim was to be able to provide high-level, personalised treatment with generous appointment times so patients feel comfortable and listened to.


I am keen on most sports but am an avid cricket and AFL supporter. I enjoy running and keeping active–completing my first (and only) marathon in May 2017. I love the Territory lifestyle and enjoy spending time with my wife and our young family in the pool or early dinners along the foreshore.

What We Offer & Treat

We provide orthotics designed to improve comfort, support and mobility. By assessing foot structure, we create orthotics tailored to help enhance alignment and improve overall movement, aiming to reduce discomfort.

Our sports and biomechanics assessments focus on analysing movement patterns to address inefficiencies and discomfort. This service helps individuals improve performance and aims to prevent injury, keeping you active and mobile.

Our video gait analysis examines walking or running patterns to identify irregularities. This detailed assessment helps guide treatment recommendations, aiming to improve posture, reduce pain and optimise movement.

Our diabetes foot assessments focus on early detection of potential issues. We conduct thorough evaluations of circulation, sensation and skin health to help manage foot health for individuals with diabetes.

We offer care for various skin and nail conditions, such as corns, calluses and fungal infections. Treatments focus on promoting healthier skin and nail conditions for improved foot health.

Our podiatrists offer treatments for ingrown nails, aiming to relieve discomfort and prevent further issues. We provide both conservative and surgical options based on your specific needs.

For recurring ingrown nails, we offer nail surgery as an option. This minimally invasive procedure focuses on long-term relief and a smoother recovery to help you return to daily activities.

Our children’s podiatry service addresses foot concerns such as flat feet and gait issues. Early assessment and treatment help support proper foot development, contributing to overall mobility and comfort.

Dry needling is a therapeutic option for muscle pain and tightness. By targeting trigger points, this technique helps relieve tension and discomfort, promoting muscle recovery and improved mobility.

We provide guidance on selecting footwear that offers support and comfort tailored to your foot structure. Proper footwear can reduce the risk of injury and contribute to long-term foot health.
