Angela Fearon


Angie is an international expert in the field of hip pain. In addition to her 29 years of clinical experience she has a number of publications in international peer reviewed journals and has presented at international and national conferences. Angie has committed the last 14 years of her life to the study of hip pain related problems so as to improve the lives of those who suffer from it. In the mid 2000s she and Professor Paul Smith recognised that many people were being misdiagnosed in relation to the cause of their hip pain. Angie undertook to positively affect this situation, undertaking a series of research projects that led to a PhD which examined the difference between hip osteoarthritis and bursitis/greater trochanteric pain syndrome. Prior to completing her PhD in 2011 (Medical Science, ANU) Angie completed a Master's degree in 1999 (Physiotherapy, UNISA) and a Bachelor's degree in 1985 (Physiotherapy, Lincoln Institute of Health Science). Angie established Hip Physio in 2013 after returning in late 2012 from being a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Centre for Hip Health and Mobility, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. She currently holds an appointment as Professor Paul Smith's Clinical Assistant, is an Adjunct Associate Professor at the University of Canberra (Physiotherapy School) and is a visiting physio at the Australian Institute of Sport. She has previously worked at TM Physio in Deakin, Corinna Physiotherapy Centre in Woden, Margaret O'Donovan's City Physiotherapy, Di Keddie's Physiotherapy practice in Dickson and the Monash Medical Centre in Victoria. Angie is a member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association and contributes to this by being the ACT State Chair and ACT representative on the National Orthopaedic Network committee.
