“I thoroughly enjoy the challenge involved in working with people and promoting their independence in activities that are meaningful to them setting short and long term goals towards achieving health and personal satisfaction.

My experience has allowed me to understand how vitally important it is to give accurate advice based upon clinical need and include the individual within the process to enable where relevant the correct equipment to be selected. I have found that matching expert clinical knowledge with advanced product knowledge can provide a solution that enables somebody to remain as independent as possible or improve activities to enhance their quality of life.

It is my aim to remain independent and neutral so that clinical opinion and reasoning is at the front of any decision making and advice given.”
