Favourite Conditions to Treat:
With my sports background, I’ve seen so many knees, hips and shoulders over the years, both on the field and in a clinical setting. But no matter what the condition, my favourite part of my job is getting people back to feeling their best again.
What are you happiest doing when you’re not working?
I am happiest when cooking for friends and family – eating at a fine establishment with a white tablecloth or at a shared humble trestle table… and everywhere in between is close to religion to me but nothing beats the happiness from making and sharing food with others.
Getting thrown around and tied into pretzels for sport would be a close second!! Travelling, classical and jazz music and reading as well, since you asked!
What would be your personal motto?
How you do anything is how you do everything
Who is someone you admire and why?
Sir Edmund Hillary. Aside from the extraordinary achievements of his life, I find him to be an example of modesty, integrity and determination. These are all characteristics I think we could embody a bit more these days.
Your most outstanding achievement.
Deciding to become a physiotherapist all those years ago. I’ve been privileged to help so many people from all walks of life. Helping the vulnerable members of society was especially rewarding, but also fundamentally changed my outlook on life.
