The story begins in India, where our founder graduated with a degree in physiotherapy in 1998. Even during his internship, his vision was clear: to become a private practitioner. He had already secured clinic space and equipment, ready to march on this dream.
These years were dedicated to practising physiotherapy in India, gaining valuable experience, and sharpening his skills.
A new chapter unfolded as our founder arrived in Melbourne, Australia, to pursue further studies. He enrolled at the prestigious University of Melbourne, graduating with both a Bachelor's and Postgraduate degree in Physiotherapy.
The journey in Australia began at Central Gippsland Health Service, where he contributed his skills to the community.
While working full-time at the hospital, the evenings were dedicated to gaining further experience at local physiotherapy clinics, including Mouli Physio Clinic and Maffra Physiotherapy.
Our founder joined forces with a friend Bhaumic Patel to establish Truecare Physiotherapy in Bairnsdale. Maffra Physiotherapy also transitioned into Truecare, marking the beginning of a multi-location practice.
The journey continues! In 2022, our founder completed the Pain Science and Pain Education programme, achieving the highest level of evidence-based training for treating chronic pain conditions. This further equips Truecare to provide the most effective pain management solutions for our patients
Since its beginning, Truecare Physiotherapy has steadily grown. Today, it has four branches with a team of eight dedicated physiotherapists, offering a diverse range of physiotherapy services across various locations

The journey wasn't always easy. Our founder's dedication shines through as we see him progressively increase his private practice involvement, starting with one evening, then three, and eventually transitioning to full-time private practice
Truecare's commitment extends beyond treatment. Our founder, a passionate local pain educator, has delivered numerous presentations (five for the general public and five for healthcare professionals) to raise awareness and educate people about pain management. These presentations were conducted voluntarily, showcasing a genuine desire to empower the community with knowledge. His dedication to pain education was further recognised through a scholarship from an organisation called Pain Revolution to pursue a Pain Science and Pain Education course at the University of South Australia.
Truecare prioritises staying at the forefront of physiotherapy advancements. Our founder has actively pursued various courses, including dry needling and clinical pilates (also known as Movement Based Classification and Training - MBCT). His commitment to continuous learning ensures that Truecare offers the latest and most effective treatment options
