Additional Information
Garett is continuing with research and teaching at UCD, but still sees patients (in-person and remotely) for two afternoons/evenings each week at McGowan Physio in Nutgrove, Dublin 14. The clinic offers 1-hour assessments so patients do not feel rushed during their session.
While continuing to see a mix of musculoskeletal and sports conditions, Garett does receive a large portion of paediatric referrals from rheumatologists, cardiologists, geneticists and general practitioners for patients with hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD), Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (PoTS), so please inform reception if you are booking for these conditions.
