"Fantastic Physiotherapist"

About: Community Services - North Devon / Community therapies

(as a service user),

Unfortunately there was a very long delay for physiotherapy, due partly to incorrect advice given by BCN and my GP.

However, the assessment and treatment session I had with Jack was outstanding. When a professional works in a client-centred way combined with a sound knowledge of their area of expertise then the effect is extraordinary.

Feeling heard and understood is so powerful after struggling alone for so long. I was starting to despair and felt completely unvalued and disempowered by the attitude of my GP, but Jack has reversed this and made me feel that there are things I can do to help myself with his support, and the team around him.

This means the world, especially when you have stage 4 cancer and so much seems unknown and down to chance.  Jack was efficient, focused, buoyant and dynamic so I think a bit of that rubbed off on me! Thank you.

I would like to thank you for taking the time to provide some feedback. It is so good to hear that you were impressed by the treatment that you had and that it has helped you to feel more in control of your self-management. I have already passed on your positive comments to Jack and he was very grateful. Thank you again.
