A bittersweet emotional day today for me with the migration of SOAR Physio into Vigour Physio Te Awamutu and our emails now gayleen@vigourphysio.co.nz etc..
A decade ago Paul and I created SOAR together and after 5 years he left me to it, to continue on. My biggest challenge was not being a clinician, which is really tough trying to run a business not being able to step in when needed. But with great staff we muddled through and still offered the public an amazing service and treatment having quite a few laughs along the way.
With Physio constantly changing and the demands even greater, for the business to be even more successful Clarke McKenzie (many will remember him from the fresh faced Irish new grad 15 years ago) has come to my aid now we are co-directors of Vigour Physio Te Awamutu.
With Clarke’s professionalism and Physio skill set he takes on the Clinical Director role whilst I’ll do all the admin, accounts, accreditation back office stuff all the while still being able to talk, which I’m good at!
So between the two of us and our awesome Physio team, Topsey, Lynda, Rebecca, Megan and Gemma Vigour Physio Te Awamutu will thrive and will be able to offer a new level of care and rehabilitation.
The next step is the signage, uniforms, business cards etc.. which I’m sure will be just as hard for me but onwards and upwards and know I’ve made the right decision.
Sorry for the long post!
