Peter Ali, Co-Director and Head Physio

Peter is a dedicated physiotherapist with over eight years of experience who is dedicated to helping each of his clients achieve their sporting or gym goals!

As an athlete, he understands not just what it takes to thrive on the field, but also the aspects that influence one's performance off the field. Peter has always enjoyed sports, growing up playing soccer, cricket, and footy, but it wasn't until university that he began to flourish in his strength objectives.

First competing in powerlifting meets, he finished third in the NSW state competition. He subsequently moved on to Olympic weightlifting, matching Australia's U56kg clean and jerk record. Outside of work, Peter enjoys playing basketball in parks, watching NBA games, and volunteering at his local church.

Furqan Chowdhury, Physiotherapist

Furqan is a physiotherapist that believes that injury is not a set-back, rather a time to identify limitations and ensure that you can come back better than before. 

Prior to PTC, Furqan has worked across acute hospitals, high level sports teams (NPL Football) and schools. This has gained him valuable experience in the areas of orthopedic post-operative care, injury diagnosis and the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries.

Furqan treats with a strong focus on exercise therapy to ensure that clients are empowered to continue pursuing the activities they enjoy despite injuries or pains they may suffer from. In his own time, you will likely find Furqan either playing pick-up basketball at the park or going for hikes across Sydney.

Additional Academic Background:

  • Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) from Australian Catholic University
