Professional Experience
Charles graduated with a B.Tech (Pod) RSA degree from the University of Johannesburg (UJ), South Africa, and is a member of the Health Professions council of South Africa (HPCSA).
Prior to moving to Singapore, Charles worked in South Africa for a few years – first at a diabetic hospital in Phalaborwa, and later at a sports clinic in Johannesburg. His special interests include sports medicine, athletics, and individual biomechanics and diabetics.
Charles has participated in various high-intensity sports over the years, rowing being the most favoured and accomplished of his achievements. Charles rowed at a provincial (Gauteng) level in his earlier years, coming close to rowing for the South African national junior side and ending at a high university level. From this, Charles has become fond of mountain biking, distance trail running and road running. He takes part in various racing distances every weekend, as well as amateur boxing on the side.
In January of 2016, Charles moved to Singapore to work at the myFootDr (Singapore) Podiatry clinic. Feeling the need to get back in the water, Charles took a keen interest in and joined the life of dragon boating and paddling, for which he currently competes at an international club crew level.
