De Long Physiotherapy Claremont

De Long Physiotherapy – Claremont

About Us

Established in 2017 under the name Simone Barker & Associates, our practice has always been rooted in quality care and patient-centred treatment. In June 2022, Aqeela De Long took over the practice, embracing its culture and values, and De Long Physiotherapy was born.

Located in Claremont’s medical hub on Wilderness Road, our practice is just minutes from Kingsbury Hospital, making us a convenient choice for patients in the southern suburbs. What started with a special focus on post-mastectomy rehabilitation has since expanded into a comprehensive physiotherapy practice, treating neuromusculoskeletal conditions and offering post-operative rehabilitation.

We provide care for both in-patients at Kingsbury Hospital and out-patients from Claremont and surrounding areas. Our reputation continues to grow as we are known for our expertise, compassionate approach, and dedication to patient recovery and wellness.
