About Sharon Goldby

My approach to care: Personal injury is a journey that impacts so many aspects of life. I like to be a partner in this journey by getting to know my patients, what is important to them and how best to achieve the outcomes they need.

 

I have enjoyed working in hand therapy for 20 years, I have met a diverse range of people and worked with a varied and complex caseload. I find it incredibly rewarding to see people return to the activities that are important to them after sometimes complex and debilitating injury.  It is a humbling experience to see people meet the challenges set before them and overcome.

 

I love to ski when there is snow, often in Japan. I am committed to fitness with yoga and weight training and looking after my friends and family. I have a love hate relationship with golf.
