Ruby Howard – Sport-Focused Podiatrist Based in Geelong

About Ruby

Ruby Howard is a skilled podiatrist who has recently joined the Pro Feet Podiatry team in Geelong. She previously worked in private practice in Melbourne for 18 months, gaining valuable experience in a variety of clinical settings. Originally from Colac, Ruby completed her Bachelor of Applied Science and Master of Podiatric Practice at La Trobe University.

Her passion for podiatry stems from a lifelong involvement in sport and a strong interest in health and fitness. Ruby competed in cross-country running and tennis at a state level, which gives her a deep understanding of the physical demands placed on the body. As a result, she can relate closely to patients managing sports-related injuries or recovering from setbacks.

Now based in Geelong, Ruby is excited to contribute to the wellbeing of her local community. She aims to help people move better, feel better, and stay active through personalised care and practical advice.
