Fiona Rosamond (Podiatrist)

Even before graduating from Glasgow Caledonian University in 2011, Fiona Rosamond (Podiatrist) had secured work with her first professional football club with Scottish Premiership side Aberdeen FC. Here she spent three seasons under former Scotland manager Craig Brown & highly respected medical team of David Wyllie & John Sharp; both of who had worked under Sir Alex Ferguson’s management at the Club forty years ago.

Since then, Fiona has worked with St Mirren FC, Queen of the South FC and latterly for the last five seasons, Kilmarnock FC.

Working closely with Physiotherapists, Fiona has developed a great strategy for players to receive Podiatry treatment routinely within training settings. This has seen a huge performance improvement, as well as a big player uptake, encouraging other clubs to do the same.

As well as working in professional football, Fiona is the owner of a successful Private Practice, Hands for Feet, with over 10,000 registered patients and four staff in her established town centre business for 10 years. In 2016, Fiona won the Association of Scottish Businesswomen “Professional of the Year” and 2017 “Ayrshire Businesswoman of the Year”, the youngest ever winner of both awards.

Fiona is also a clinical placement provider & mentor for Glasgow Caledonian University Level 3 Students for their private practice module.
