Kate McNally BSc Pod, RCPod, HCPC registered
Podiatrist and Practice Owner

I trained at Plymouth University and qualified in 1992 with a Batchelor of science in Podiatry. After graduating I was employed by South Buckinghamshire NHS where I gained valuable experience in all aspects of routine podiatry and the specialist care of Diabetic and Arthritic foot conditions, Nail Surgery and Biomechanics of the foot and leg. I stayed for eight years and became the Deputy Manager of the department and ran the laboratory where insoles and orthoses were made.

I obtained a certificate in Sports Podiatry in 2000 which I used to great effect when I  moved back to Devon in 2001, as I continued my work for the NHS part time and established a Private Podiatry Practice with a team of highly reputable Physio Therapists in Exeter.
I started work in Budleigh Salterton in 2006, focusing on primary care of foot health conditions. I pride myself in a professional yet caring approach to understanding and treating each case individually. Foot health problems will be fully assessed and appropriate treatments are then tailored to meet each patient’s needs.
​
As member of the Royal College of Podiatrists, and registered with the Health Care Professions Council, I regularly attend courses and workshops to further my continuing personal and professional development.

 Hazel Hunt MAR SAC Dip. FHP 
Foot Health Practitioner

I qualified as a nurse Exeter in 1984. Working with people to enable them to live well has always been what I have wanted to do. After a leg injury which put an end to my nursing career, I decided to retrain as a reflexologist. Later I also proudly qualified  as a Foot Health Practitioner from Stonebridge College in Bude, with a L4 Diploma(Distinction) in Theory, and a Diploma in Practical (Advanced)Training.
A Foot Health Practitioner's role is to help people with their routine foot health. I have been trained to recognise foot conditions and to either treat them, or to know when I need to refer on to a Podiatrist for more specialist foot care. At Rolle Podiatry this means that you can see someone for appropriate care within the team.
Since qualifying I have attended further seminars, masterclasses and workshops with other professionals within the foot world, ensuring that I am following the best practice and up to date with changes in the sector. I aim always to provide a friendly but professional service where safety, hygiene, comfort, and confidentiality are important.

Sam Humphries
Dip HE, MSc, HAD, RCCP & HCPC registered 

I am a registered Clinical Audiologist (RCCP) and Hearing Aid Dispenser (HCPC).
​I have spent the last 21 years working in Audiology (Ears!), having qualified in 2003 at De Montford University in Leicester.
​I worked for 12 years post-qualification as an NHS Audiologist at the RD&E Hospital in Exeter, and at various community hospitals throughout Exeter, Mid & East Devon. 
​In 2011, I proudly gained a Masters Degree in Rehabilitative Audiology at the University of Bristol. The specialist modules included tinnitus, adult rehabilitation and Audiology for those with complex needs.  
​In 2015, I embarked on a new challenge, and helped to set up and project-manage a brand-new hearing centre in Exeter city centre. I spent the following 3 years as Principal Audiologist and Hearing Centre Manager, dispensing private hearing aids and connectivity devices, and providing custom hearing protection and other specialist Audiology services. I also gained an additional qualification during this hectic time, the Institute of Acoustics Certificate of Competence in Workplace Noise Risk Assessments - in short, this means that I am able to carry out workplace noise risk assessments/noise surveys, and provide written reports and custom hearing protection, in addition to conducting diagnostic audiometry. 
​I then spent 3 years, (with a lockdown gap to work for NHS Test & Trace), as a Locum Audiologist working at various NHS hospitals, testing hearing (both adults and paediatrics) and fitting adult hearing aids. I also saw patients with learning and other complex needs, and fitted a wide range of hearing aids from a range of hearing aid manufacturers (including CROS, BICROS and Tinnitus Combination aids). 
   
I founded Southwest Audiology Services in August 2021 as I wanted to provide the very best in independent Audiology services plus 'gold-standard' microsuction ear wax removal. To give my time and expertise, to allow informed decision-making without delays, bias, limited testing or choices, time pressures or long waiting lists.  Check out my 5* rated excellent trustpilot reviews!

Anna Maria Mazzieri BSc (Hons)
SOFT TISSUE THERAPIST MISRM MSTA AND EDUCATOR

I just love my profession, I love working together with people to help them feel better, move better and perform better.
I have been in practice for 20 years and I study extensively to ensure I am up to date with evidence and be at the best practice end of the profession.
If you have sustained an injury or you have been in pain for a long time I can help you.
My treatment is a combination of massage, manual therapy and exercise/movement. I extensively use functional neurology which is a fancy word to describe evidence based exercises for visual, vestibular and proprioceptive rehabilitation which I find especially useful for improving pain and function.
I obtained the BTEC level 5 Diploma and have a degree in Sports Therapy.
As of 2023 I am applying for a Masters in Neuroscience.
I founded and still am lead tutor at The School which is a centre of excellence for the delivery of BTEC level 5 Diploma and training of Soft Tissue Therapists. The School has now become a driver for better and higher standards in the industry advocating evidence based practice.
