Andy Saxton

Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist

Andy graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2017. He began his career at the Manchester Royal Infirmary, a prominent NHS teaching hospital located in the heart of Manchester, where he completed junior rotations across various core specialties. His experience spans cardiac intensive care, orthopaedics, and musculoskeletal (MSK) outpatients, providing him with a solid foundation in diverse healthcare settings.

After two years, Andy felt the urge to specialise and transitioned to Chesterfield Royal Hospital, taking on a senior role in MSK physiotherapy. Over the next five years, he honed his expertise in a wide array of MSK conditions, focusing on accurate diagnosis and effective management strategies. A key element of his approach is promoting self-management and long-term improvement, ensuring that patients are empowered in their recovery journeys. Additionally, Andy played a crucial role in post-operative management for various surgical interventions, collaborating closely with orthopaedic consultants, particularly in shoulder surgeries, ACL reconstructions, and Achilles tendon repairs.

In his commitment to holistic care, Andy led the occupational therapy service, facilitating rapid access to physiotherapy for staff members. This initiative not only reduced MSK-related absences but also encouraged healthier, more active lifestyles within the workplace.

Andy adopts a person-centered approach, recognising that each individual is unique. He develops honest and realistic treatment plans tailored to help clients achieve their personal health and fitness goals.

His areas of expertise include:

- Comprehensive assessment and treatment of MSK issues

- Prehabilitation programs to enhance surgical outcomes

- Post-operative rehabilitation for various surgeries

- Return-to-sport training programs

- Soft tissue mobilization and manual therapy

- Functional assessment and rehabilitation

Outside of his professional life, Andy is passionate about golf and football, and enjoys staying active. As a newcomer to Grand Cayman, he is excited to explore the island and all it has to offer.
