LUCY THOMPSON
I achieved a First Class Honours degree in Sport Rehabilitation and Exercise Science from the University of Nottingham and have worked in professional rugby since graduating. I have always been very passionate about sport which led to the interest in injuries and their assessment and rehabilitation. I have participated in hockey and netball regularly.

I really enjoy the problem-solving aspect of my job and the satisfaction of assisting a patient back to their daily lifestyle and hobbies. During my post graduate employment I have developed my assessment and treatment methods as well as experience in developing and implementing rehabilitation programmes.
Due to my past role in the rugby medical team I have also completed my qualification in Immediate Care in Sport Level 3 allowing me to treat those with life threatening injuries prior to hospital transfer. I have a particular interest in the musculoskeletal aspect of healthcare, especially sports injuries due to my experience and focus of my degree.
