Referrals and first appointments

How to be referred, what to bring, and what a first consultation covers.

  1. 01Registration and accreditation
  2. 02Request an appointment

Bring your imaging

Discs, links or reports from anywhere. It frequently saves repeating a scan you have already had.

Bring your referral letter

From a GP, a physiotherapist or a consultant. Insurers usually require one; we do not.

Wear something you can expose the joint in

We cannot assess a knee through a pair of jeans.

Come with your questions written down

People forget them. What we are asked most is when you can drive, work and play sport, and we will answer all three.
