About Me[edit | edit source]
I am an experienced musculoskeletal physiotherapist and have worked in the UK and Australia in a variety of different clinical environments and with a variety of clients and clinicians. I set up a private physiotherapy practice in the UK which developed into three busy clinics with a small team of physiotherapists. I then became interested in producing e-learning materials for the education of physiotherapists which is where the present focus of my work is. I am currently a Director of Webducate where we develop bespoke and innovative distance learning resources and consult on all aspects of e-learning for health care education. I have also founded CPDspot which provides support for health professionals with their continual professional development, and under this umbrella I have developed Physiospot, a series of research blogs which highlight clinically relevant research, myCPDspot, an online portfolio system, and now Physiopedia.
