Anna graduated as a physiotherapist at King’s College London in 2007 and has since acquired a wealth of experience working in the field of adult physiotherapy within community, outpatient, and acute settings at some of the leading NHS trusts in London.

In 2013 after participating in an observational study of the prevalence of BPPV in older adults at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, she discovered her aptitude and great interest in vestibular physiotherapy and went on to complete further training in the physiotherapy and multi-disciplinary management of vestibular disorders at The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London. Anna has delivered various Vestibular Rehabilitation teaching sessions to fellow physiotherapy colleagues including a lecture in 2019 to over fifty Yorkshire physiotherapists with an interest in neurology (ACPIN) and BPPV.
