La Donna
Podiatrist
November 2018
Living and working in the Wairarapa, for the people of the Wairarapa.
In 2008 my family and I came to Masterton from Birmingham in the UK. It was advertised as “Green and beautiful rural life… friendly and welcoming.” Masterton has lived up to that advert.
I have a podiatry business in town and have been blessed with the love of my patients. I could live anywhere in NZ. But I choose Masterton.
