ABROAD #9: Patellofemoral Pain with Claire Robertson
Show Notes

Welcome to Season 3, in which I'll be travelling around Europe to interview a variety of guests in person throughout 2023!

Today i spoke with Claire Robertson, better known as Claire Patella! She's one of the most knowledgeable clinicians when it comes to patellofemoral pain and it was a true privilege to speak with her.

Claire has worked in the NHS, academia and private practice, and currently runs a specialist patellofemoral clinic at Wimbledon Clinics. Claire has lectured internationally and has many research papers and editorials published in internationally peer-reviewed journals. Claire also runs her own post-graduate course on patellofemoral problems for physiotherapists.

We speak about if quad strength is as important as it is often taught, the role of patellofemoral taping and what it actually does, overlooked areas of assessment and much more.
