Subjects taught
  • Physiology

    A huge part of my undergraduate and honours degree was based on human physiology. It is also intergraded into my profession therefore it has been crucial understand the physiological processes that occur in the human body in order to give the best treatment possible. Anatomy and physiology were my favourite subjects whilst I was a student and are also the subjects I excelled in the most
