We aim to provide a range of treatment and management options. Such treatments can vary from a hands on approach, exercise programs as well as coordinating care with other health professionals.

The Hand Physio Clinic.
Susan Tran
Physiotherapist
Susan graduated from The University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Applied Science (Physiotherapy) in 2008. She started her career at Liverpool hospital as a first year graduate. Here she rotated around different specialties until she had the opportunity to specialise in Hand Therapy and she loved it. She has since worked in both private hospitals and practices in Sydney and the United Kingdom. This has allowed her to further develop her skills ranging from treating acute, traumatic injuries to more chronic hand and wrist conditions.
Susan became a Certified Hand Therapist in 2014 and is an associate member of the Australian Hand Therapy Association.
She enjoys the “hands-on” nature of hand therapy, making splints and other gadgets. But also the big improvements she is able to gain with hand therapy interventions.
If you require any urgent care for your hand or wrist conditions, please contact me, Susan Tran, on 0426 560 336. General patient bookings can be made on 9744 2201.
