Our aim is to give excellent care and service, and to treat each of our patients as individuals so you receive a unique, tailor-made programme for your specific needs. The PhysioCare Team is made up of five experienced Chartered Physiotherapists who have worked in both Private Practice and the NHS for many years and are all HCPC registered. They each have areas of special interest within physiotherapy and continue to develop in their work through study and professional courses. It is our pleasure to introduce them to you…

gill McEWEN

Senior physiotherapist

I enjoy treating neurological, respiratory and women’s health conditions and having undergone many training courses, have a deep interest in compassion focused therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I believe it’s important to treat patients as a whole and like to delve and find the triggers which have caused the pain in the first place.

Rachel Bartlett

Practice Manager

“My key role on Reception is to provide great customer service and I enjoy helping people, whether on the phone or in person. My previous experience helps me to make sure that all our patients are looked after in the best possible way, as I am able to identify and match a patient’s problem to the right Physiotherapist.

When I am not working, I really enjoy cycling and walking, which is a good antidote to sitting at my desk all day and keeps me fit.”

testimonials

My Physiotherapist has a unique way of dealing with her patients. She first and foremost has the skill required to help solve their problems and has an interested, inquisitive and open mind. She also expresses a great deal of care.

Richard, Cowes

I just wanted to say thank you for all your help with my recovery from my knee ligament injury. I am now back playing football properly and have today been told I have been selected for the Island Games Ladies Football Squad, so after a long and difficult time out, all the hard work has paid off. My knee is feeling pretty good and I’m continuing with strengthening exercises all the time.

Mrs S.

Due to having received an impeccable standard of treatment and professional service I would feel it wise for someone requiring a physiotherapist or help with pain to seriously consider visiting PhysioCare for assistance

Steve, Cowes

I walked into the clinic in pain and bent over and emerged much more relaxed, standing and walking upright and in much less discomfort. Not only did my physiotherapist treat me with a great deal of care and understanding, she also restored my confidence.

Charlotte, Ryde
