Having qualified as a Physiotherapist, I have enjoyed seventeen years of clinical experience in various settings and different countries. I completed a sound general junior rotation and subsequently specialized in neurological rehabilitation. I have worked as a senior member of the stroke rehabilitation, falls and community rehabilitation team at Powys,Wales for the last ten years. My special interest and passion towards musculoskeletal rehabilitation helped me concurrently work in out private outpatient clinics using my manual therapy and acupuncture skills

I collate and review incident reports and ensure they are submitted in the appropriate timescales. I have been in my current post for ten years and I feel I have gained a vast wealth of experience and transferable skills that I believe would benefit me in medico-legal work both for Quantum reports and causation and liability report writing.
