A Little Bit About Me[edit | edit source]
First of all Thank You for visiting my profile and a massive Hello to you. I am Saumya Srivastava ( yes my name can be a tongue twister), but I am generally known as SAM. I currently work as an Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner for the brilliant NHS in the Primary Care Network and am in charge for the MSK services for the PCN.
I was born and bread in India and did my Bachelor's degree from M.S. Ramaiah Medical College, Bangalore India (2006). Post bachelor's I had a one year work experience in India itself where I worked as a lead physio for a renowned Orthopaedic Consultant based out of Delhi ( my birth place). I then migrated to the UK in 2008 to pursue onward education and was lucky enough to gain a PG Diploma and a MSc from premier UK institutions. I did my PG Diploma in MSK Sciences from University College London (2008-2009) and then entered the MSc programme at Kings College London ( 2009-2010). Post MSc I started to work in the MSK field. During the course of the last 10 years I have dabbled with Paediatric PT ( home based physio for 2 CP kids), Neurological Rehab ( Stroke/Parkinson's to name a few) and Palliative Care ( End of life care) at a Hospice as well. I then had a change of job roles as wanted to challenge myself and became a Disability Analyst for the Department of Works and Pension (UK) for a couple of years. I did not enjoy the role much and therefore finally took the current position in the NHS.
I owe a lot of my personal and professional development to my MSc which is in Pain Sciences. It made me think out of the box for not only my patients but also helped me to re evaluate my own personal beliefs. It made me realise that although pure biological issues do have a role, it is the Biopsychosocial (BSP) model that decides patient outcome, Therefore I have seen a shift in my own practise from being a manual therapist to coaching my patients on the BPS model.
