Bernard specialises in the treatment and rehabilitation of neurological conditions through technically advanced and innovative lower limb orthoses helping adults and children living with neurological mobility issues to live as freely and independently as they can. Bernard’s diverse client group includes people living with the effects of stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, poliomyelitis, cerebral palsy, Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) and motor neuron disease (MND).
Bernard also has a background in student training and mentorship and continues to provide student clinical placement mentoring and supervision to support the development of future orthotists in Australia. Bernard is often requested to deliver presentations and in-service workshops to other medical and health practitioners on ways of optimising neurological mobility impairment outcomes through lower limb orthotics.
Bernard and the Orthomotion team work effectively within the NDIS and other third-party funding environments to deliver orthotic assessments and reports that meet funding criteria for client’s orthotic supports.
