Mr Patrick Doherty

Mr Patrick Doherty

Physiotherapist

Paddy graduated from University College Dublin in Ireland in 2019 and moved to New Zealand shortly afterwards. As a physio, Paddy has worked with soccer, rugby and gaelic football teams across a variety of age groups and levels in men's and women's sport in Ireland and New Zealand. He is currently studying for a Certified Specialist in Strength and Conditioning qualification to continue to develop his skills. Paddy is passionate about helping people get back to doing the things they love and really enjoys working with people to achieve their goals. He has a particular interest in injuries that require long term rehab and loves using his exercise skills to make sure people are getting back to and beyond their pre-injury levels. That interest leads him to see a lot of significant injuries and post-surgical cases, with ACL injuries, shoulder dislocations and achilles ruptures currently top of his list. Outside of work Paddy loves all types of sport. He is currently playing soccer and gaelic football along with gym training, but has qualifications as a kayaking, sailing and paddle boarding instructor and is currently trying to master surfing. When he's not playing sports, he loves exploring New Zealand's beautiful landscape by hiking, camping and tramping. Paddy has recently began developing and delivering bespoke professional development services to our clinicians in his new clinical lead role. View details »

Mr Umang Patel

Mr Umang Patel

Physiotherapist

Umang graduated from Auckland University of Technology in 2025. During his clinical year in Tauranga, he gained experience across acute, neurological, and musculoskeletal settings, developing a strong interest in sports and musculoskeletal physiotherapy. Umang brings experience as a sideline medic, having worked with both rugby and cricket teams. Throughout his life, Umang played a range of sports, including cricket at an age-representative level, and also enjoyed hockey and football. Like many athletes, he experienced his fair share of injuries and spent plenty of time receiving physiotherapy. Seeing how important physiotherapy was in helping him return to the sport he loved inspired Umang to pursue physiotherapy, and in doing that, work towards supporting others in the same way. I enjoy working closely with people through their rehabilitation journey and finding the best approach for their individual needs and goals. I aim to create a fun and friendly environment while working collaboratively with people through their recovery. My approach often includes exercise-based rehabilitation, combined with hands-on treatment and practical strategies to help people return to the things they love most. Outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, playing cricket and golf, watching sport, and spending time with friends and family. On weekends you’ll usually find me doing something active; whether that’s at a sports park, exploring around New Zealand, or catching up with friends. View details »
