Rebecca Rushton is a Podiatrist in Esperance, Western Australia, with a modest population of 12,000 people, and the next closest podiatrist to Rebecca is about 400km away. Even though Rebecca lives in a tiny town, she has found an area of podiatry that she is genuinely passionate about. That area of interest is BLISTER treatment and prevention.
I would go even as far as to say that there would be very few Podiatrists in the world that would know more about treating and preventing blisters than Rebecca Rushton.
On this episode we discuss:
- What causes blisters (how this is not understood entirely / definition of friction)
- Why it's essential to involve blister prevention in treating blisters (don't just whack a bandaid on it)
- Different preventions work better depending on anatomic location.
We also talk about why she loves living in such a remote area and the benefits you get from being a well-rounded general podiatrist.

- www.blisterprevention.com.au
- Her book: The Blister Prone Athlete Guide
- Facebook Group: The Blister Hour goes live every Thursday on Facebook at 8 AM Perth time.

Podiatry Business Coaching & Mentoring
If you want to own and operate a Thriving Podiatry Business you've got to work on four specific areas of your business.
- Marketing - You need to have a proper, well thought out strategy
- Systems - You need systems that will support both your marketing and your team.
- Team - You need to develop a culture that makes your life easier, not harder
- Diary - This is the backbone. Your diary needs to be structured in a way that maximises patient number per day and in turn, will increase your daily profits.
Thinking you can just work on one part or maybe two out of four areas and still do well is no longer good enough, you must develop all four pieces of the business puzzle.
