Maddie Pronovost – Physiotherapist
Maddie is originally from the United States graduating with a Doctor of Physiotherapy. She has worked as a travel physio over the past 4 years in 5 different states across multiple settings including hospital based acute/sub acute care, nursing home, private practice, home health and paediatrics. She has treated people with musculoskeletal and neuromuscular conditions, and has a soft spot for treating people with balance and gait deficits. She loves being a physiotherapist because it allows her to work with people of all ages and backgrounds improve their health and wellbeing.
