Hilary Lewis

Hilary is an occupational therapist with a special interest in persistent physical symptoms (PPS), which are symptoms such as pain and fatigue that are not wholly explained by organic disease. She is particularly interested in rehabilitation for those people with moderate-severe difficulties who have not been helped by health care services. Hilary has been awarded a National Institute for Health and Care Research Doctoral Fellowship, which aims to improve services for people with moderate-to-severe PPS, through standardising and refining current specialist rehabilitative approaches that focus upon improving activity and participation.
