For Kylie, her work has always been about empowering patients – not just treating conditions. Having worked in the health and medical industry for over 19 years, she knew there was a better model of care that was built on deeper relationships and genuine connections… and so PhysioHealth began!
Kylie is a passionate leader and advocate for patients, particularly for those living with cancer. CanConquer – the Illawarra’s only exercise oncology program – was created by Kylie based on overwhelming evidence that shows that exercise during cancer treatment improves treatment outcomes and reduces cancer growth. With Kylie’s support, patients can achieve their physical and lifestyle goals throughout their cancer journey – from a new diagnosis, throughout treatment and towards life after cancer.
Kylie is a firm believer that “Tutto ‘e possibile” – everything is possible – for patients, her team and for PhysioHealth, with every day bringing a new chance to make a difference.
Highlights working PH:
Every day I walk in the door is an adventure. New day, new possibilities and a new chance to make a difference. Our team and our environment make that possible.

I’m a terrible cook… but I can make awesome beef jerky. Better than commercial grade. My kids are now selling it – Three Amigos Beef Jerky!

What do you love about Wollongong?
Its small-town feel. I’m originally from Grafton and love going to shops and running into people I know!

I’d have to say Sketch Coffee & Art is my pick.
