WHAT MAKES ASHMITHA A GREAT PHYSIOTHERAPIST?

“I genuinely care about the emotional, mental and physical well-being of my clients. I
also believe in having a holistic care approach towards health, so working as a team
with my clients as well as fellow physiotherapists, physicians, dieticians,
occupational therapists and nurses to help my clients receive the best health
outcomes possible is what I aim towards doing. My strength as a physiotherapist
comes from my ability to empathize with my clients and always have open
communication. I also believe that continuing professional development is the
cornerstone of becoming a clinically efficient physiotherapist and getting the best
possible results for your clients. I am currently working on gaining my Women’s
Health certifications from the APA.”
