From 2002 to 2007, this gave me the opportunity to diagnose and treat an extremely varied patient base. Being a multidisciplinary centre, the clinic provided an opportunity to work along side other healthcare professionals, often co-managing difficult cases. Also, I had the great fortune to be able to work alongside a local neurosurgeon from the Royal London Hospital, Whitechapel, dealing with post surgical patients. Integrating with the local medical doctors and general practitioners such as this enabled me to establish good contacts and continued support. Prior to this I practiced as an associate in various clinics throughout Hertfordshire, including St Albans, from 1998 to 2002. Also throughout the summer breaks of 1993 to 1998 I received tutelage from Nigel Hunt (Salisbury Chiropractic Clinic, Salisbury, Wiltshire). <br><br> CPD Courses <ul> <li>Conservative Management of Cervical Spine Syndrome taught by Donald R.

I had taken 2 months off before Martin was recommended, so I went to see him. And I must admit he worked wonders.' <br><br> Melissa Cliffe - Psychotherapist E1<br> 'I had enormous neck problems which Martin was able to treat with gentility and his approach I found to be very considerate and thorough, getting to the root of the problem.

Together we helped a patient who had badly injured himself while preparing for a world judo tournament and thought he would never take part again. Through treatment with both acupuncture and chiropractic we've been able to give him back his dream of competing at the 2012 Olympics.' </p> </body>
