Kent is a clinician and clinic director who leads a team of physiotherapists in private practice.

Kent has been a clinical mentor since 2017 across two large private practices, has been a clinical supervisor of physiotherapy students undergoing university placements in private practice and has been a member of The Second Visit since its inception in 2020.

Kent understands the challenges early career physiotherapists have in adjusting to private practice, and the difficulties navigating the often conflicting advice that inexperienced physiotherapists are given or can find online. He believes critical thinking, clinical reasoning and a thorough understanding of the basic skills of physiotherapy lay the foundation for a successful career.
