Sheila's retirement

Sheila Watters, retirement
Posted 13/05/17

We're very sad to be saying goodbye to a much-loved member of the team, Sheila Watters, who is retiring this month.  

I've worked with Sheila for a number of years, first in the NHS and latterly in private practice.  As anyone who has worked with her, or been treated by her will confirm, she is an exceptionally skilled, hard-working and highly-respected therapist.  

On a personal note Sheila has been an incredible mentor to me over the years and I can never thank her enough for everything she's taught me and for the way she's inspired both myself and other therapists in the team.

Sheila - you'll be greatly missed by all of us at Bristol Neurophysio but we wish you all the best in the next exciting stage of your life and we look forward to hearing all about what you get up to next.

 

Some kind words

Our daughter’s renal failure means that she is delayed with standing and walking at 2 and half years of age. We first started seeing Jules a few months back for an intense block of physiotherapy to build the strength and skills needed for her to eventually stand and walk.  It was really important that the physiotherapist specialised in paediatrics and could work alongside the NHS physiotherapists we also see. Jules immediately put us at ease with her friendly and professional approach and has built a good, trusting relationship with our daughter.  She uses play as a way to get our daughter to engage with the therapy.  Our daughter has really enjoyed all her physio sessions to date and we have seen a notable improvement in her movement.  She has begun to pull herself up and can climb up small steps as well as shuffle down stairs in a controlled manner!
