How can I help you improve your health?
I joined Nuffield Health in April 2009 beginning my Nuffield journey in triage and Surbiton FWB, moved to Paddington FWB as Clinic Manager in 2010. In 2012, I swapped the management role for a role in the Advanced Level Physiotherapy service, where I became a Lead ALP in 2013, I currently split my time between the ALP service and clinic in Paddington FWB.
My first degree was BSc (Hons) Sport and Fitness Science from the University of Bedfordshire in 1998, I began my role in the fitness industry as a Personal Trainer, helping healthy people improve their lifestyles. In 2001 I began a role as a physiotherapy assistant in the NHS to make sure that physiotherapy was the right role for me. I loved it and returned to university and obtained a BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy from St Georges Medical School, University of London in 2005.
After graduating I started my career in the NHS in South West London, whilst working part-time with Queens Park Rangers F.C. Centre of Excellence. Since then I have worked in Private Practice, and was part of the GB Medical Team for the Maccabi Games in 2005 and World Indoor Athletics Championships in 2017.
I enjoy the challenge of rehabilitation clients, whether that be in or outside the gym setting. I have a passion for getting people back to exercise, be in the gym, outdoors or playing sports. This has driven me to further my knowledge by studying for an MSc in Sports and Exercise Medicine at Queen Mary’s University, which I am due to finish in 2020,
I believe in treating the cause not the symptoms and I enjoy helping people from all walks of life, not just sport. I have a special interest in sports injuries and strength and conditioning for the rehabilitation and prevention of injuries. Outside of work, I enjoy keeping fit in the gym, watching pretty much most sports and am a long suffering Liverpool fan.
