About

I serve on the board for the National Physiotherapy Group’s committee responsible for improving physio services to Indigenous Australians.

I’ve mentored university students across different health programs at The University of Newcastle. Pop in and see me about any needs sport, especially Soccer and Golf!

I got my Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) at University of Newcastle and started my career at Gosford and Wyong hospitals before joining Macquarie Physiotherapy.

My areas of special interest include joint replacements and ACL reconstructions, knees and shoulder injuries and casting and splinting

On weekends I play AFL for Cardiff Hawks Football Club, enjoy bush walks, 4WDing. I’m also a proud dog mum and any other free time I have is spent with my furry friend.

Prior to becoming a physiotherapist, I completed a Diploma in Outdoor Recreation.

Outside of work I enjoy mountain biking, surfing and running. I also have a love for playing basketball and the NBA.

I am also a qualified Pilates instructor and enjoy running classes at our Glendale Practice.

Outside of work I enjoy the outdoors and being active in running, surfing and camping.

I’ve previously represented Australia in surf lifesaving and I still love surfing, snowboarding, travel and playing with the mighty New Lambton FC O35 Dodos.

I get an immense sense of satisfaction helping my clients deal with headaches, neck and shoulder issues, as well as lower back and knee conditions.

When I’m not at work, I enjoy travelling, swimming, yoga, long walks, playing music and connecting with loved ones.

I’ve been part of this team since 1997 and my areas of speciality include creating custom-moulded orthotics, dry needling, post-op shoulder rehab and hydrotherapy.

I’m a keen surfer, snowboarder, mountain bike rider and playing over 35’s soccer and AFL.

I love that Macquarie Physiotherapy is a big family where we support each other and our clients.

I’ve been part of the team for 20 years and have a special interest in headaches and dance.

It was my privilege to be the physio for the Birmingham Royal Ballet in England. Outside of work I love my family, travelling and cooking.

In my spare time I enjoy surfing, playing indoor and beach volleyball, general exercise such as running, cycling and weight training.

I enjoy chatting to patients and being the friendly face when they come through the door. Even though I’ve been working here since 2006, I’m originally from Northern Ireland so I’m the one with the accent.

I’ve been with Macquarie Physiotherapy since 2008. Most of my time is spent at the Belmont clinic however, you might occasionally see me at Gateshead. I love being able to have a chat with our patients and when I’m not at work, I love spending time outdoors.

I’m originally from Austria and I’ve been at Macquarie Physiotherapy for 10 years. I love making people comfortable and try my best to put a smile on their face. I have a passion for horses, being outdoors, exercising and socialising.

I started working here in 2007. My favourite things are working with the young team and talking with our patients. I pride myself on learning one new thing every year and I recently became a Civil Marriage Celebrant which I enjoy greatly.
