Nathan Cliff

Nathan graduated in 1998 and brings a wealth of experience to Belridge Physiotherapy, including seven years as Senior Physiotherapist for the London Metropolitan Police. After returning to Perth in 2009, he joined Belridge Physiotherapy as Senior Physiotherapist and also worked across mine sites in musculoskeletal and occupational health. 

A partner at Belridge Physiotherapy since 2010, Nathan has a strong sporting background, having played semi-professional soccer and represented WA at U19 level, as well as achieving state titles in beach sprints through surf lifesaving. His special interests include knee injuries, spinal conditions, and rehabilitation.

Nathan works closely with many leading orthopaedic surgeons, particularly Professor Dan Fick in total and partial knee replacements. Having undergone partial knee replacements himself, he offers a rare first-hand understanding of the prehabilitation, education, and rehabilitation involved in joint replacement surgery.  He also works closely with Mr Tao Shan Lim at Joondalup Orthopaedic Group, whose expertise includes hip, knee, and shoulder arthroscopy, labral and meniscal repair, and ACL/PCL reconstruction.  Nathan also collaborates closely with Dr Murilo Leie, a lower limb orthopaedic surgeon specialising in knee ligament and meniscus surgery, as well as knee and hip joint replacements.

Outside the clinic, Nathan enjoys spending time with his two children, especially surfing, snorkelling, and fishing in summer, and coaching junior soccer during winter.
