Christine has specialised in shoulders for the past 12 years working in the NHS as an extended scope practitioner and in private practice as a clinical specialist. She works closely with the orthopaedic consultants on the diagnosis and management of all shoulder problems from the young patient with dynamic instability, the impingements and frozen shoulders to the elderly with rotator cuff problems. Together with the consultants she has been auditing their elective shoulder patients for the past ten years looking at outcome. She is a member of BESS (British Elbow & Shoulder Society), and she was awarded a fellowship by them on the use of dynamic ultrasound. She has also had publications on night pain in shoulders and on management of shoulder conditions for GPs with a special interest in musculo-skeletal therapy.

Christine will be joining us for a specialist shoulder clinic once per month to assess and advise on problematic shoulders.
