Evan Comerford

MSC ATT
Chartered Physiotherapist & Athletic Therapist

Evan is a recent graduate from the Masters in Physiotherapy program in UCD. He completed his BSc in Athletic Therapy and Training in DCU in 2020. Having spent two internships in Dublin Sports Clinic during his studies, he decided that he liked us so much he joined the team following his graduation in 2022!

 

Evan has had plenty of experience in the treatment of a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions and has a special interest in the management of lower limb tendinopathies and hip/groin related injuries. Evan has worked with a range of athletes at club, senior and university level from GAA, Camogie and Soccer . As an elite level GAA player, his first hand exposure to the demands of high performance training and injuries gives him a unique insight and understanding to both injury management and coaching which really enhances his approach to his treatments and day to day clinical expertise. 

Evan has worked with a broad range of patients from high performing athletes to individuals who remain recreationally active for health and wellbeing, to sedentary people who would like to become more physically active to improve their health. 

Evan really enjoys incorporating an injury prevention approach to his programming and educating his clients to create an enjoyable relationship with resistance training. He strives to help his clients (re)discover what their bodies are capable of and facilitate a return to optimal physical performance in whatever form that looks like as individual in a safe manner.

Evan has been sports mad since a young age and has a keen interest in all sports. As a very talented gaelic footballer he has progressed through the ranks with his club Ballymum Kickhams, with both DCU and UCD at University Level and now as goalkeeper with Dublin Senior Footballers. 

EAs a new member of the DSC Team, Evan’s enthusiasm, work ethic, energy and mad plyometric skills already make him a firm favourite in DSC (even with  the culchies!!) As a Graduate Physiotherapist he is enthused to have the opportunity to apply his personal experience with sports injuries and training alongside evidence based rehab to provide optimal care and treatments for all patients regardless of the injury or activity levels.
