Henry Wallace

As an experienced physiotherapist with a diverse background in both inpatient and outpatient care, I have developed a comprehensive skill set across various specialties. My experience working in fast-paced, multidisciplinary environments has equipped me with the ability to adapt quickly, manage complex cases, and deliver personalized, evidence-based care. I currently work for the UHSussex healthcare trust.

I am passionate about rehabilitation and helping patients recover, regain independence, and improve their quality of life. I am always eager to expand my knowledge and make a positive impact on patient outcomes.
