Junior Physiotherapist

Q: Why did you join The Back and Body Clinic?

A: I’d heard nothing but positive things about the clinic! I knew I wanted to do MSK physiotherapy since my NHS rotation in the area and felt that the support and training here would really help both me and my patients to thrive!

Q: Whats you favourite patient journey and why?

A: During my 4 months on the Burns Unit, I treated a patient from the beginning of his critical care stay right through to his outpatient appointments. He had severe burns covering a large percentage of his body and needed lots of therapy input including respiratory support, splinting, scar management, stretching, and strengthening. It was amazing to see him strong and well enough to be discharged from hospital, but even more so to see his function and confidence continue to grow as an outpatient.

Q: What do you do at the weekends?

A: I like doing anything outdoorsy, whether that's going running, hiking, camping, swimming, or surfing - my mum's recent campervan purchase has been very ideal for me! I’ll also be  travelling UK-wide to see friends, watching sport, or going to the gym.

Q: For lunch I have?

A: It would be incredibly rare for me to go a week without pesto pasta being involved somewhere.

Q: One item to take to a desert island?

A: I think I'd probably need a fair few gallons of SPF 50.
