Jamie Petersen
Physiotherapist
I studied at the University of Western Cape from 2018-2022. I then went on to go do my comm serve year in Upington at Dr Harry Surtie Hospital. I chose physiotherapy because of my Dad. He is a maintenance guy, and had many unfortunate IODs. My younger self would always eagerly rub on his sore muscles or tend to wounds, and at the time it felt rewarding that I could help my dad.
My parents were actually the ones to point me to physiotherapy which I’m grateful for. My favourite part of physio is that you able to learn something new everyday. My hobbies are experiencing new and cute places/ restaurants with family or friends. Being apart of the Physio4All team is absolutely amazing, as we are always learning from one another other and when we feeling stuck, help is always a phone call away. The practice really cares about its clients and aims for great quality service and customer service.
