Older than 18 with a joint or muscle problem?

First Contact Physiotherapy

We now have a First Contact Physiotherapist working at the Surgery. First Contact Physiotherapists are highly skilled Musculo-Skeletal Practitioners. They can diagnose, refer you for x-ray's and also refer you to Orthopaedics if needed. All of this can be done without a GP appointment and you can book yourself directly either online or by calling either Stockbridge or Broughton reception. 

We do not offer courses of physiotherapy but you can self-refer for this - see the box below.
