Paediatric Allied Health

Liz Donnellan

Since graduating with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy from the University of Queensland, Liz has worked in many settings, giving her extensive knowledge in many fields, however her passion is within paediatrics and all things disability! Liz aims to work with the entire family to help their child enjoy life to the fullest, be happy and achieve all their goals and dreams, even if they think they are beyond reach.

When not working with our lovely clients or behind the scenes keeping Lifespan a well oiled machine; you will find her spending time with her husband, daughter Jasmine and two energetic dogs Axl and Archie, running (sometimes even half marathons) and planning overseas adventures – finding the best Gelato all over the world is a must!
