As the Practice Manager for Te Aro Physiotherapy, Shilpa thoroughly enjoys her role and being a part of the team. Being a long term employee of more than twelve years, she acknowledges that the mutual respect and open communication between staff makes her job extremely rewarding. The excellent service and care provided to patients is something she is very proud of. Meeting and greeting the patients is always a pleasure. Shilpa's ongoing goal is to achieve a healthier, stronger mind and body.

Maggie joined our team earlier last year as the front office executive. Maggie thoroughly enjoys the contact she has with those who attend the clinic. Outside of work, she enjoys gardening and is an enthusiastic amateur photographer. Each month she attends her local book club where the discussion is always lively and varied.
