About Me
Maggie Dawson PGDip Paediatrics BSc(Hons) Physiotherapy MCSP
I studied Physiotherapy at King's College London, graduating in 2008. I have been registered with the Health & Care Professions Council since then and have an immaculate record of professional conduct and practice. I am fully insured, have a DBS certificate and am first aid trained to ensure the safety of you and your child.
Since graduating, I have worked in a range of settings and environments including charitable work in Tanzania and Malaysia, spending four years working in Australia and most recently in the Cayman Islands where I was the sole paediatric physiotherapist for the three islands. I have worked in private and public sectors.
Since doing my bachelor's degree, I have gone on to do further specialised training in Paediatrics and obtained a Postgraduate Diploma from University College London in 2014. I have completed a range of post-graduate courses including becoming a Level C DMI trained practioner. I am a member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists (CSP), the Association of Paediatric Chartered Physiotherapists (APCP) and the Medico-Legal Chartered Society for Physiotherapists (MLACP). I am always staying on top of new forms of practice, changes in the NHS and enhancing my own clinical practice. I am a highly motivated, driven and passionate physiotherapist and look forward to working with you and your child to meet their goals.
