Hi there,

I'm doing a bit of market research for my orthotics lab in Newcastle Australia, NSW.
I had a look at some of the data on podiatry management news and it was very helpful, but it obviously relates to american statistics.
I have a few questions to ask to Australian Podiatrists in general that will help give me an idea for how I can best deliver my services.
You can answer all questions, or only some if you want, Any information is helpful for me.
Feel free to pm me if you would prefer to remain confidential.
Here are my questions.
1. How does your clinic prefer to capture the contours of the feet.
2. How does your clinic prescribe orthotics?
• Paper prescription fully detailed?
• Lab discretion?
• Online prescription form?
3. What type of materials do you prescribe?
• What are the most common top covers you would like to prescribe?
• What type of orthotics do order most often?
4. How many pair of custom orthotics do you prescribe per week?
In America i think the average podiatrist prescribes something in the order of 7.5-8
per week-how does that compare with Australian podiatrists?
5. What type of distribution strategy would you like?
• If it was slightly more expensive to reduce the order time would it be preferable?
• If it was slightly less expensive to have a longer order time would it be preferable?
• Does your clinic want Daily Cast / foam box delivery, bi-weekly shipments or other?
6. What specific type of orthotics do you normally prescribe?
• Direct milled?
• Hand made?
• Injection molded?
• Prefab Heat molded?
• Specialized materials ie. carbon fiber or composites?
8. What is your opinion of Laser scanning?
9. What is your opinion of handmade orthotics?
Is the extra cost justifiable for the quality?
Thanks for your time and best regards,
