“Devashni enjoys the challenge of various in hospital and outpatient clinical conditions as she believes this gives her a better platform to treat patients holistically.”
Devashni qualified in 1994 and commenced work at King Edward III Hospital. The experience gained at this institution proved invaluable and drove her passion for patient care.
She was employed at a private practice and did a part-time stint lecturing and providing clinical supervision to undergraduates at the Westville Campus Physiotherapy Department and partner hospitals. Her clinical calling overpowered her lecturing talents, and she advanced her career at Private Practice in Durban, gaining a vast clinical basket of skills in Cardio-Thoracic, Orthopaedic, Surgical, Medical, Neurosurgical, Paediatric and a myriad of outpatient conditions.
At this stage, Devashni felt the need to pursue her dreams and established her private practice in 2000, providing a service to St Augustine’s, Entabeni, a while at Ethekwini Heart Hospital, Westville Hospital and Capital Hospital. This, in addition to an outpatient service at her flagship Practice in Glenwood. Within a few years of Private Practice, she obtained her OMT qualification and has continued to expand her clinical knowledge through various courses, journal articles, clinical meetings and conferences
She extended her outpatient services by opening another practice on the premises at Westville Hospital almost 6 years ago.
Adele was welcomed into our team in 2020 and has proved to be a most valuable addition to our practice. She studied a year of Chiropractic but soon realised that Physiotherapy was her passion. Her choice was rewarded by Dean commendations during her academic years. While doing her community service at Edenvale Hospital, she developed a love of community and outreach projects and continues to do so on a social level. Adele has courageously assisted in the treatment of our COVID admissions and has made a difference in many patients lives. She enjoys hospital and outpatient care and has revealed her secret talent in treating Neurological patients. She gets immense satisfaction from assisting patients to obtain their highest functional levels. Adele believes in patient-centred care and a team approach to patient management.
She unwinds with a coffee and a good book whilst enjoying music and also dabbles with some photography in her spare time.
