Mr Patrick Doherty
Physiotherapist
I graduated from University College Dublin in Ireland in 2019 and moved to New Zealand shortly afterwards. As a physio, I have worked with soccer, rugby and gaelic football teams across a variety of age groups and levels in mens + womens sport in Ireland and New Zealand. I am currently studying for a Certified Specialist in Strength and Conditioning qualification to continue to develop my skills. I am passionate about helping people get back to doing the things they love and really enjoy working with people to achieve their goals. I have a particular interest in injuries that require long term rehab and love using my exercise skills to make sure people are getting back to and beyond their pre-injury levels. That interest leads me to see a lot of significant injuries and post-surgical cases with ACL injuries, shoulder dislocations and achilles ruptures currently top of my list. Outside of work I love all types of sport. I'm currently playing soccer and gaelic football along with gym training, but I have qualifications as a kayaking, sailing and paddle boarding instructor and I'm currently trying to master surfing. When I'm not playing sports, I love exploring New Zealand's beautiful landscape by hiking, camping and tramping. View details »
