    Job summary

    Hi, I'm Kristy, a Respiratory Physiotherapist working across the Pulmonary Rehabilitation Team and the Community Respiratory Team.

In our team we have Specialist Nurses, Physiotherapists and Respiratory support workers, and we work closely with the wider Multidisciplinary Team.
