Donovan Baker
Physiotherapist
Donovan Baker (Physiotherapist) is the founder of The Physio Don. As a Gerontological Physiotherapist and Exercise Science Specialist, he brings a unique blend of clinical and exercise science expertise to every session. He holds a DPT from Macquarie University and a Bachelor of Exercise Science from Griffith University.
His approach is built on evidence-based practice — every treatment decision is grounded in current research and tailored to the individual in front of him. With a focus on Healthy Ageing, Strength & Independence, he believes the best outcomes come from understanding not just what's hurting, but why it's hurting and how to prevent it from coming back.
