Gen Fleeton
Womens Health and Musculoskeletal at Woolooware.
My Story:
I grew up in Canberra and am one of five kids. I was always a really active kid – you’d rarely find me inside! I gave nearly every sport a go but my main focus was netball. I was brought up to give my best and to help others which led me towards a career in physio and a move to Sydney to achieve that goal. After nearly ten years I have finally settled into the big smoke and am here to stay!
In my spare time I enjoy swimming, running and going to the gym, as well as exploring new walks and trying new restaurants.
What makes me different:
I have been fortunate enough to work with very experienced physiotherapists through my career so far and have gained so much knowledge from them. A question I have often been asked since leaving uni is ‘what part of the body do you want to specialise in?’ and my answer is that I’m interested in the whole body. I am not just fascinated by the body but the whole person and all aspects of their health.
The thing I like most is working as part of a team, getting to really know and understand my patients while having fun along the way.
