Our priorities

We are committed to making Physiquipe a sustainable company and supporting our stakeholders with their own sustainable goals. Our team are currently focusing on the following SDGs and is always open to collaborating on relevant projects:

How did Physiquipe come about?

I left university with a degree in Sports Science and a particular interest in physical rehabilitation. Prior to Physiquipe, I was as a client relationship manager working with healthcare professionals across the UK. During this period I travelled extensively, visiting some of the best medical facilities around the world and meeting inspirational, dedicated people committed to enhancing the rehabilitation of their clients.

I could see that the U.K was not at the forefront of technological innovation in various aspects of rehabilitation, and I realised there was an opportunity to bring the best technology from around the world to help raise the standards of healthcare. I had built up great relationships with both manufacturers and clients, so I was able to select products which were going to have the biggest impact for clinical outcomes.

Why do you do what you do?

I have always had a passion for health and fitness as well as for helping people. I love the challenge of searching for new and innovative ways to help both patients and clinicians. I also believe that equipment is of no benefit unless it is used by the right people in the correct circumstances. This is why we have such a focus on education through the Physiquipe Academy.

All of our suppliers from around the world share our philosophy of education rather than ‘sales’. I love my ‘work’ and feel very privileged to be able to work with our team and with clients each and every day.

Job role

Provide training, treatment and consultancy for the application of the specialist equipment Physiquipe provide for patients and clinicians. Develop new and innovative care pathways and treatments which will benefit patient outcomes.

Why you do what you do?

I love to help people. Improving care in the NHS, private healthcare or the care to our own patients at Physiquipe Clinics is what gets me up in the morning and motivates me throughout the week, knowing that we are making a difference and improving the standards of healthcare across the UK and Ireland.

One person you want to have dinner with and why

It would have to be David Attenborough. The guy is an absolute legend and his voice and knowledge is incredible. I love animals and the environment so would love to chat with him about that but he must have some amazing advise and outlooks on life too.

Job role

Being a training and education manager, it’s my responsibility to identify training and development needs within Physiquipe. My role consists of planning and delivering virtual and physical events, and exploring ways to maximise our education platform. My role is also committed to designing all training resources required for our customers and ensuring they have full support following purchase.

Why do you do what you do?

As a clinician, I’ve been involved in developing and providing lots of training and education opportunities to others. There is a huge job satisfaction in sharing knowledge and aiding others in their careers. Being able to provide valuable training and support to clients and seeing them using technology which enhances outcomes for patients and their business is why I do what I do.

One person you want to have dinner with and why

Only one person? Can I have a dinner party instead?

I would have loved to have dinner with Whitney Houston. Her voice and career was incredible!

Job role

In a nutshell a bit of everything behind the scenes. My job is to ensure the team is working efficiently by having the right systems and structures in place. The role manages finance, servicing and internal HR support.

Why do you do what you do?

Producing fresh ideas, questioning why we’re currently doing things and looking at the latest technologies are key to driving us forward. Finding a team who are open to change and can adapt their way of working is hard to come by, but we’ve got it here at Physiquipe. Our team are incredibly passionate about our company mission and always striving to improve.

One person you want to have dinner with and why?

Denzel Washington! From The Bone Collector to Inside Man, he’s been a living room favourite for many years (we’ll forgive him for The Equalizer). I’d like to talk to the man behind the acting and see which role he most resembles.

Job Role

As the service engineer at Physiquipe my role is maintaining and servicing our equipment. My responsibilities may include installing, repairing, and calibrating devices, conducting routine maintenance, troubleshooting technical issues, and providing support to customers or healthcare professionals who use Physiquipe’s equipment. This role ensures that our products are functioning correctly and meeting the needs of our clients.

Why do you do what you do?

Being a service engineer at Physiquipe offers me the opportunity to work in a field related to physical therapy and healthcare equipment, allowing me to contribute to the well-being of others. Additionally, I appreciate the chance to troubleshoot and repair equipment, solving technical challenges and ensuring that healthcare facilities have reliable tools for patient care. The role also provides a sense of fulfilment and job satisfaction, knowing that my work directly supports the healthcare industry.

One person you want to have dinner with and why?

I would want to have dinner with Billy Connolly because he is a legendary comedian and storyteller known for his humour, wit, and fascinating life experiences. Sharing a meal with him could provide an opportunity for entertaining and engaging conversation, laughter, and insight into his unique perspective on life and the world.

Job Role

I’m a business and marketing student, just completed my second year studying at Sheffield Hallam. I’m at Physiquipe on my placement year, my job role at Physiquipe is content creator, all things marketing and social media, learning from the whole team along the way.

Why do you do what you do?

I find the ever-evolving industry of medical devices very interesting; I believe that the power of communication through marketing and social media can have such a positive impact on people’s lives. I have a passion for being creative and love connecting with people. Being a part of a team and working with others to make an impact, is an exciting concept that I believe can be fulfilled here at Physiquipe.

One person you want to have dinner with and why?

I would have dinner with Audrey Hepburn, but feel like breakfast at tiffanys would be more appropriate. Not only was she an iconic actress but her time off the screen made a difference to the world. Such an inspiring woman.

Job role

As a Clinical Applications Specialist at Physiquipe, I provide training and support to clinicians on the use of our specialised rehabilitation equipment. My role involves helping healthcare professionals make the most of our technology to improve patient outcomes. I also assist in developing new care pathways and treatment approaches to enhance patient care.

Why do you do what you do?

I’ve always been passionate about human performance and helping people live pain-free lives. Having a background in performance sports, I know how important it is to move well and feel good. Whether working within elite sports clubs or private healthcare, the chance to make a real impact on someone’s life is what drives me. I love knowing that the work I do helps people improve their movement, feel better, and live without pain.

One person you want to have dinner with and why

Muhammad Ali. He’s not just a sports legend, but he was also known for his personality and confidence. I’d love to hear his thoughts on life, how he stayed so motivated, and how he dealt with challenges. I’m sure it would be an amazing conversation full of humour and stories from one of the greatest.

Job role

Working with clinics to help elevate their practice by providing innovative technology that is bespoke to their clinic’s needs.

Why do you do what you do?

My background in Pharmacology fostered a passion for human biology and medicine, particularly how innovation and scientific advancements enable the development of new techniques and treatments. In my role, I help clinicians apply novel technologies to their practice to improve patient outcomes and improve the accessibility of these treatments to patients across the country.

One person you want to have dinner with and why

I would choose to have dinner with Louie Theroux. I admire his interview style, and he has also interviewed people with unique and often controversial stories. which I’d love to hear more about. I also think that hearing more about him and how his experiences through making documentaries have shaped his world view.
