Philippa Oakley wins the prestigious Chiropractor of the Year Award
Our co-director Philippa Oakley has won the renowned “Chiropractor of the Year” award, the most prestigious award presented by the British Chiropractic Association (BCA). This award is presented to one chiropractor each year in recognition of their outstanding achievements within the chiropractic profession.
Catherine Quinn, President of the British Chiropractic Association comments, “Philippa Oakley is recognised by the Board for the outstanding contribution she has made in the promotion and understanding of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in chiropractic. As well as providing multiple CPD sessions for the BCA Family this year, Philippa has shared her passion for EDI with chiropractors as far and wide as Canada and South Africa. It is rare to find individuals who will make significant impact on the profession and Philippa, together with Rhiannon has certainly done so. Congratulations to Philippa and thank you to her for highlighting such important topics for our profession and the wider healthcare family, we are proud that she is an active member of the BCA family.”
Philippa comments, “I am thrilled to have been recognised as Chiropractor of the Year in recognition of my work in EDI. This is a hugely rewarding aspect of my non-clinical work and I am proud to work with UK chiropractors, healthcare professionals and healthcare institutions from around the world in developing their skills and understanding regarding the impact of health inequalities.”

Philippa graduated from the Welsh Institute of Chiropractic in 2012 with a Master of Chiropractic degree, and her commitment to clinical excellence has been recognised through the awarding of several prestigious accolades. In addition to her clinical work as a chiropractor, through Oakley Coaching, Philippa and her wife Rhiannon work extensively with healthcare organisations, NHS Trusts and Integrated Care Systems, providing training, education and support to refine and develop their EDI strategies, and enhance patient-centred communication.
