On a sunny day, Katrina hopped on her partner’s Harley-Davidson to visit family, but their ride took a tragic turn when a ute unexpectedly turned left into their path. The crash sent Katrina flying, resulting in severe injuries and significant trauma to her feet.
After being rushed to the hospital, she began working with a podiatrist for rehabilitation. "My podiatrist is helping me recover. I could barely walk at first, but with my orthotics and orthopedic shoes, I'm feeling more comfortable," Katrina shared.
I met Katrina when she sought legal advice for her road injury claim. With her podiatrist's support, we've built a strong case to cover lost wages and rehabilitation costs. Our partnership with allied health professionals, such as podiatrists, is crucial; we help injured patients claim compensation for time off work and ongoing treatments.
“Having my podiatrist and Maurice Blackburn in my corner has given me hope for my recovery,” Katrina said. Together, we’re committed to helping her get back on her feet.
This Podiatry Week, 13-19 October, we’re celebrating the great outcomes we achieve for injured people by working in partnership with podiatrists across the country.
