More about the team

Testimonials

Kirk and I have worked together very closely treating patients for many years.  As an orthopaedic surgeon it is incredibly important to know that patients get first-class rehabilitation and I have every confidence in Kirk which is why I work so closely with him.  His care and professionalism are second to none.  He is one of my go-to physiotherapists.

Neil Bradbury, FRCS, FRCS (Orth) Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon

Our whole family has been seeing Kirk over a number of years for various sports injuries. He is expert at identifying the cause and providing exercises to aid recovery and ensure the injured party can get back to playing as quickly as possible. The whole family has now seen him! He is a muscle whisperer.

The Goodman Family

I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon based in Bath specialising in problems relating to the hip. The relationship between the surgeon and the physiotherapist has to be a positive one, working together in the patient’s best interest. I have known Kirk for a number of years and have always found his referrals to me appropriate accompanied with an informative referral letter after pre-referral therapy has been completed. After surgery, physiotherapy can help to optimise a patient’s recovery and outcome based on their lifestyle and expectations. Patients often feed back to me at their clinic appointment how helpful Kirk has been. I am very happy to recommend Kirk to any patient with a hip-related problem.

Matthew Burwell, Consultant Hip Surgeon

I have worked Kirk for many years and have found him an excellent muskulo skeletal specialist, treating athletes and patients in a very professional manner. Kirk is equally adept at treating international athletes as he is in treating the ‘weekend harriers’ and has been instrumental in successfully rehabilitating many of my patients.

Otto von Arx, Consultant Spinal Surgeon

I have been working with Kirk for over ten years and have had the pleasure of sharing numerous patients with him. He is an excellent physiotherapist who has an in-depth understanding of shoulder pathology and rehabilitation. I receive many compliments from patients about their interactions with Kirk, both in terms of his expertise and personable nature. I look forward to many more years working with him and have no hesitation about highly recommending him.

Gavin Jennings, Shoulder Surgeon

Kirk has been a massive help in my recovery from both long-term injuries and annoying niggles. So far, I haven’t developed an issue he couldn’t fix!  He is very methodical in his approach to finding a long-term solution to any biomechanics issue. I have recommended him to countless friends and family.
