In my previous role I developed experience of injury prevention and return to play protocols. I consider these important elements of working in a sports focused clinical environment. As well as good clinical skills I have strong organizational ability, am reliable and have a collaborative approach to my work. I'd feel comfortable working as part of an interdisciplinary team and would be keen to add value to the culture of your clinic. Like many therapists I'm committed to my own ongoing professional development and delivering patient-centered care.
