Our team

​

Nejc Šimenko graduated from the Faculty of Sport in 2017 with a specialisation in Kinesiology, he worked for 3 years as a professional head of the Kinesiology Department at Global Sports Clinic, which focused on the rehabilitation of injuries of top athletes, and for 1 year as an expert consultant at Global Treatment Clinic, which works in the field of treatment of severe chronic conditions.

Nejc Šimenko is a former world-class athlete with an Olympic qualification and a national record in swimming in the 200 metres breaststroke.

To date, Nejc Šimenko has worked with more than 800 individuals in injury rehabilitation and post-injury physical training programmes.

Nejc founded the Medicofit clinic in 2021 in collaboration with his business partner Jaka Plantan. Nejc's vision when he founded Medicofit Clinic, which is now shared by a team of 10 members, was to enable patients to receive more effective treatment for injuries and musculoskeletal pain.

Medicofit Clinic achieves high success rates in injury rehabilitation through two operating principles:

• Modern physiotherapy that guides patients from the acute phase of injury to excellent physical condition,
• By fully individualising therapy and exercise protocols for each patient.

Modern therapy aims at restoring and improving motor function and therefore has a higher success rate in practice than conservative therapy, which basically only focuses on symptom relief. Acute rehabilitation of injuries aimed at improving the functions is the foundation of all professional processes at Medicofit.

At Medicofit, Nejc is responsible for strategic business development, professional process development, management of professional teams, and works with clients in the diagnostic examinations and kinesiology department.

At the Medicofit clinic, Mitja performs specialist medical examinations with patients who have spine problems. Mitja is the leader an expert in spinal pain in Slovenia, he also performs spinal surgery and pain reduction with epidural and facet blockade for patients of the Medicofit clinic.

As part of the Erasmus+ programme, Julia gained valuable professional experience in the Medical Exercise physiotherapy clinic in Valencia, Spain in March 2020. In addition to kinesiology, Julia is currently interested in the field of process management of administration and patient management in healthcare. In her opinion, a good system for working with clients results in a more willing company and faster treatment of injuries. With her intimate knowledge of kinesiology, Julia contributes to a better flow of information between the clinic's specialist departments and patients.

• Administration

From the moment you arrive at the clinic until the end of your treatment, Julia ensures that you have professional and up-to-date treatment in the Medicofit Clinic's Customer Support Department. Julie believes that professional accuracy of information is important from the first time a patient contacts Medicofit Clinic, whether it is at the reception desk via a call or an email.
