The practitioner will take a detailed history and conduct a physical assessment to try to establish the precise nature of your problem. They will also try to identify any causative, and/or perpetuating factors before recommending a management/treatment plan.

Where the patient wishes to proceed with treatment at the first visit, we aim to do this if appropriate. Please note however that this may not be possible for insured patients receiving medical procedures from our specialist doctors. This is because the insurer often has to approve the recommended treatment and may also require a written report to assist them in this decision.
