🎉 Great News — Lucy Weekes Is Back at JS Podiatry! 🎉

We’re thrilled to share that Lucy Weekes is returning to JS Podiatry from 22 December!

Many of our long-term patients will remember Lucy from her time with us earlier in her career. Over the past two years, she has been working at the Royal Adelaide Hospital as a high-risk clinical senior and research podiatrist, gaining fantastic experience in complex foot and ankle conditions and diabetic foot care.

Lucy has a special interest in:
🦶 Sports and musculoskeletal injuries
🦶 High-risk and diabetic foot care
🦶 Biomechanics and gait-related issues
🦶 Preventative long-term foot health

She’s also a runner and group-fitness lover — so she understands how important it is to stay active and pain-free.

We’re incredibly excited to welcome her back to the team, and she’s now taking bookings from 22 December onward.

📅 Appointments are available over summer

Pain under the ball of your foot?
It may be linked to a plantar plate injury — a condition that’s often misunderstood.

In our latest blog, podiatrist Mathew explains what the plantar plate is, how injuries occur, and what a podiatrist looks for in assessment.

Lock-lacing is a technique that should be used in sports shoes. It prevents heel slippage and keeps your feet in the back of your shoes. It stops trauma to your toes and is a must for every runner! Our podiatrist - Mathew Millar - explains!
