Physiotherapists

Our physiotherapists are passionate about helping people get back on their feet, be it in the hospital or the community. After a lean 2016, we are back to three, though we dream of four. For more information on rehabilitation services in a rural area, see http://www.ruralrehab.co.za

Hlumisa Mjali
Chief Physiotherapist
Hlumi grew up in Cape Town and studied at UWC. She did her community service in KwaZulu Natal and worked at the rural Emmaus Hospital, before joining us in late 2016 as our Chief Physio. Areas of physio that particularly interest her are orthopaedics and neuro, with patients who have spinal cord injuries a special group. On the sports field she has represented South Africa at Goalball. She's also passionate about Blind Cricket, or really any disability related sport. Roll on wheelchair basketball!

Duncan Miller
Physiotherapist
Duncan graduated from UCT and did his community service at neighbouring Madwaleni Hospital. After a short stint in private, he's come back to rural, rejoining us in late 2016. The patients he most enjoys treating are adults with neurological disabilities. Interests away from work range from music - he plays the piano and violin - to rock climbing.

Cloudia Barr
Physiotherapist
Cloudia has joined us for community service this year, after graduating from UCT. She enjoys women's health and has an interest in paediatric spinal cord injuries. Her list of recreational interests is long: discovering different types of tea, genres of music and places to visit top the list, but she also enjoys reading, yoga and taking photographs.
