I’ve spent most of my 17+ year clinical career working in well-established musculoskeletal and sports medicine settings. This has helped me develop a keen interest in more complex clinical diagnostic reasoning, the rehabilitative side of injury management (including strength & conditioning), and restoration of normal functioning. I treat a range of musculoskeletal conditions but have a keen clinical interest in tendon issues, shoulder and knee injuries, back and neck pain.
Over the years, I’ve been privileged to work with various professional sporting associations and teams, in particular: Tennis Australia and Basketball Australia, as well as various other professional and amateur sporting organisations across football (e.g. AFL, Soccer, NFL).
When I’m not in the clinic, I’m over at the University of Melbourne, where I’m a Senior Lecturer in Physiotherapy. I’m also a Research Fellow, having completed my PhD. My expertise is in digital health technologies. My interests surround the use of different technologies to support physiotherapy care. I regularly consult and teach courses on this area to other health professionals locally and internationally.
