Jamie’s main clinical interest is in the area of rehabilitation and the conservative approach to injury management. He works closely with a number of consultants in their care pathway with a focus on prehabilitation and post-surgical rehabilitation. In recent years his main clinical interest has gone in the direction of knee injury rehabilitation, primarily the anterior cruciate ligament. He also has a keen interest in the shoulder complex and the role that correct rehabilitation and strengthening has in the return to pain free function for those with rotator cuff or labral pathologies.
