Gillian, known to most patients as Gill, founded Physio Edge in Chiswick in 2006. A South African-trained physiotherapist and University of Cape Town graduate, she brings more than 25 years of clinical experience across South Africa and the UK.

Before establishing Physio Edge, Gill worked in NHS and private healthcare, including intensive care and respiratory services at St Thomas’ Hospital in London, and occupational health for BAA at Heathrow and Gatwick airports. This broad clinical background informs her approach to understanding each patient’s health, lifestyle and recovery goals.

Gill has continued to develop her expertise through postgraduate training in orthopaedic medicine, diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound and injection therapy. Her particular interests include sports injuries and longevity medicine. Alongside physiotherapy and rehabilitation, she offers diagnostic ultrasound and ultrasound-guided injections where clinically appropriate.

Gill continues to treat patients at the Chiswick clinic while leading the practice’s clinical development. Her further training in longevity medicine and advanced aesthetics reflects her wider interest in health, wellbeing and ageing well.
