Sarah Roe
Sheffield Therapy Centre - Partner/Clinic Manager

Sarah started her career with the insurance giant Norwich Union (now Aviva) and worked her way up into management, ironically, moving into the Healthcare / Private Medical Insurance sector. Equipping her with management skills, expertise in private health and customer service experience, Norwich Union provided a firm and sound basis for her future. Sarah has also worked in tourism, law and prior to Sheffield Therapy Centre, she worked for Sheffield Primary Care Trust (PCT) / NHS Sheffield. Sarah gained a valuable insight into primary healthcare in Sheffield, and the things which patient’s value and need. Sarah now manages everything from top-to-bottom at Sheffield Therapy Centre from organising rehabilitation contracts with national healthcare / medico-legal companies, marketing, financial planning / accounts, managing staff and of course making an awesome brew! Basically, everything except the clinical therapy.

Sarah's love of her life is her son Lucas - AKA Boo Boo Bear. The business is of course also a passion but thankfully is able to balance this as she employs a receptionist to look after things day-to-day to facilitate a better worklife balance juggling mum and clinic manager roles. Between Lucas and Sheffield Therapy Centre, this leaves little “Sarah” time, but when the odd magical spare hour does come along (yeah right), she loves nothing more than a session at a Spa, swimming, running and “lunch” with her buddies. Since her first visit to Calgary and Banff some years ago and a recent magical trip to Levi - Lapland, Sarah has been promising herself to learn to ski properly.  Even the vouchers for the Ski-Village didn't kickstart this due to a hectic lifestyle! Lucas has had his first lesson but she hasn't  managed one for herself.  Moving onto Mark; a truly wonderful, inspiring and funny man, husband and daddy.  Sarah also enjoys a night out in Menzels and Bar 23, a slap-up meal at Rossi’s with Mark, a cheeky glass of Rose wine (preferably Moet but beggars can’t be choosers hey?) and failing babysitters, snuggling up with Casino Royale, a cold glass of wine that inevitably gets kicked over the carpet and a large bag of Maltesers! She also likes the odd peak at Paulo Maldini, Jamie Redknapp, Nicky Byrne and Matt Goss!  Any of these, in any order....

 

Mark Roe - Sheffield Therapy Centre - Partner/Head Physiotherapist

Mark entered the world of Physiotherapy as a mature student, more years ago than he would like to admit. Following a brief career in professional football at Doncaster Rovers, where injury forced early retirement, he was inspired to study at Huddersfield University to become a chartered physiotherapist due to his experiences as an injured footballer. To aid his studies and gain experience he worked for 3 years with the therapists at Huddersfield Town F.C. Academy. Following this he turned down the opportunity to work in professional football, in order to further his knowledge base working for the NHS. After graduation he went on to work at Rotherham General Hospital and worked his way up to be a Senior Physiotherapist. During his time at the hospital he worked in many departments such as neurology, respiratory, elderly, out-patients, sports injuries and orthopaedics. He now works full time at Sheffield Therapy Centre and is also Director of the Mark Roe Sports Physio Academy which specialises in the treatment of sports injuries. He has also worked as consultant physiotherapist to Sheffield FC, the world’s first football club. Mark is Sheffield Therapy Centre’s Head Physiotherapist and enjoys advising on any type of problem. However, due to his history and experience, he specialises in sports injuries. You can learn more about Mark on our sports injuries page and by visiting www.markroesportsphysio.co.uk

In Mark’s scarce spare time (if only we could clone him as his services are in such demand he gets calls 365 days a year, yes, Christmas Day and New Years Day included!) – he enjoys trip to the golf course, where he tries to play at golf (bless him). With a seemingly never ending supply of new Taylor Made golf clubs that promise to make him a better player, if only he had more spare time he would master the game. Maybe with his supply of vouchers for lessons with Jason Ripley he will improve. As a sports physiotherapist, he is clearly interested in all sports – especially football. A doting dad, he also enjoys spending time with his son Lucas and true to form, a golf club and football are never too far away – even a pair of socks will become a “football” or “rugby” ball! A smart man, he lets Sarah think that she is the boss when he secretly (and mistakenly) thinks that he is. He also enjoys comedy clubs, Girls Aloud and making the house untidy!
