​

Claire graduated with a Physiotherapy degree in 2004 and began her NHS career in Surrey, before working in New Zealand and then relocating to Kent.

 

She works at a local acute NHS Trust, initially as a specialist in respiratory and intensive care, and then in 2019 changed roles to work in frailty. She completed a post-graduate certificate (with merit) at The University of Brighton in 2025 and achieved the status of Fellow in Advance higher education.

 

Claire continues to work part-time in the NHS, and commenced her private practice in 2023 to provide expertise to patient groups who require home services.  She is delighted to be able to offer greater flexibility and a truly patient-centered approach to rehabilitation.
