Graduating from Queen Margaret University in 2019, Phil has been employed in private practice since achieving a 1st class honours degree, joining Footmed as his first professional role. Previously Phil worked in retail specialising in technical footwear and customised insoles, and it was this that led him to Podiatry.

Phil understands how important continual professional development is to gain knowledge and skills. Following graduation Phil has worked hard to broaden his scope of practice through completion of courses in dermoscopy, microwave verruca therapy, musculoskeletal laser treatment and medical acupuncture. He is also part way through a corticosteroid course.

Phil has a keen interest in sports injury and musculoskeletal podiatry, stemming from competing nationally at swimming and water polo. The love of sport and the interest in the rehabilitation following injury has been hugely influential in his own development.
