Dave Mercy- Senior Musculoskeletal and Manual Physiotherapist
Dave is based at our Clifton and Ashton clinics and it is a return to the West Country for a boy that trained in BATH over 25 years ago. He has worked in a variety of clinical settings including NHS teaching hospitals where he was a Clinical Educator to students from the University of Lincoln as part of his Senior management role. Specialising in Musculo-Skeletal outpatients very early on his post graduate education includes Acupuncture, Clinical Pilates, Ergonomics, Orthopaedic Assessment and Manipulative Physiotherapy. His interest in travel means he has worked in the Southwest, Midlands, and Australia. Dave has been working in Private practice for the last two decades most recently in Harley Street and Fitzrovia in London with some Great Surgeons and Sports medicine Specialists. He has a particular interest in the management of running and tendon injuries has hung up his spikes and taekwondo belt to take up half and full marathons including a particularly hilly Madrid Marathon.
In his spare time Dave is either on his bike or taking Photos of Bristol´s amazing scenery and sometimes both!
