Alongside all aspects of MSK assessment and treatment Dave’s interests include:
- Hip, knee, and ankle pain

- Return to sport preparation
Dave is really pleased to join BWT Physio, commenting:
“There is a vast amount of knowledge and experience within the BWT team, and I look forward to adding to, and learning from, the team’s expertise as we strive to stay at the forefront of physiotherapy practice.
I enjoy guiding and returning patients back to running and sport participation and performance, knowing the specific demands that are required to achieve this. I also bring my experience of lower limb post – operative rehabilitation following bony injury, tendon, and ligament reconstruction to the BWT team.”
Already gaining fabulous testimonials from his patients at BWT, Dave looks forward to returning you to full function!
