Jack spent 2 years in Townsville at the NQ Foot and Ankle Centre specialising in sports podiatry, treating a wide range of biomechanical conditions including the Australian Defence Force and the NQ Cowboys NRL team. Jack then moved to London where he spent 2 years working at the Guys’ and St. Thomas’ Hospital Trust specialising in Diabetic High Risk Wound Care and ran specialist weekly Nail Surgery clinics for the NHS. Jack’s area of special interest is musculoskeletal injuries and treating athletes ranging from the weekend warrior to the elite. He believes that prevention is better than a cure and that educating his patients is key to effective treatment and prevention of future injury.

Jack is proactive in keeping up to date with the latest podiatric techniques by attending regular Podiatry Conferences, Seminars and Continuing Professional Development.

Jack started JD Podiatry when he moved back to Melbourne with his wife in 2015 and opened his first clinic in the Western Suburbs of Melbourne. In early 2017 Jack relocated to the Surfcoast and is excited to bring a state-of-the-art Podiatry Service to where he now calls home in Torquay.
