Angela has a passion for outdoor adventure, women’s health and generally helping others.

After completing her Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the University of Newcastle in 2012 with class 1 honours, Angela has worked in a broad range of public and private settings.

Starting out in the hospital she gained a solid foundation across all areas of Physiotherapy. Since then, she has spent the last six years in private practice honing her musculoskeletal knowledge. She has a love to help others which lead her to spend three months in Papua New Guinea providing Physiotherapy aid and training in remote communities.

Angela has a special interest in Women’s Health Physiotherapy which she has developed over the last 4 years.  Her passion was cemented after the challenging pregnancy and birth of her first daughter. Having experienced a very difficult first birth, it was a personal relief to have a beautiful birth for her second daughter with the assistance from prenatal Physiolates and birth prep.

 

Outside of work she is busy with her two little girls but also has a love for swimming, hiking, rock climbing, skiing and camping.
