“We sought Nick’s advice on how best to update the current management pathway for ACL patients as this had not been undertaken for some time, and also to meet an increase in demand with new surgical expertise arriving at the Trust and increasing ACL surgical patient volumes… Nick was able to blend his research and clinical expertise with easily implemented changes in the physiotherapy department’s practices that has helped move the department forwards, form stronger links with orthopaedic surgery colleagues, and most importantly provide our patients with a better standard of care… I would whole-heartedly recommend Nick’s services to any department wishing to provide high-class input and improve patient outcomes”.

Scott Newton. Orthopaedic Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner, Croydon University Hospital NHS Trust, London, UK.

“Nick completed a full service review for our musculoskeletal physiotherapy outpatients service and guided several audits which enabled the development of a comprehensive care pathway from referral to rehabilitation and return to full duty… In only a short time, Nick enabled this department to raise its clinical standards through facilitating the review of current practice in a way that included greater staff clinical reasoning and evidence-based practice… The care pathway allows a clearer vision for all involved and ongoing use of the pathway and its systems have clear value placed upon them by all staff”.

Major David Wilson. Officer in Command, Physiotherapy Outpatients, British Army, Tidworth Garrison Primary Care Rehabilitation Facility, England, UK.


Consulting services are provided for individuals, private clinics, private hospitals, NHS hospitals, amateur and professional athletes and sports teams, the military, and emergency services.

Consulting services include a nine-step process of listening, understanding, assessing, advising, explaining, implementation, evaluation, adjustment, and empowerment.

People, groups, and organisations are most successful when they have acquired the knowledge, understanding, and strategies to improve and modify their situation themselves. As we work together, I’ll be sure to give you the ‘what’, ‘why’, and ‘how’, so that you build as strong a platform as possible to grow and develop independently in the future.
