What should I expect to happen at my physiotherapy assessment?

The physiotherapist will take a detailed history and then do an examination using a number of recognised tests to try to establish the nature of your problem. They will then begin treatment with you or advise you on the best course of action. This will often include a series of exercises or other self-management advice to help you recover. It is important that you follow this advice because our experience tells us that the patients who follow their plans generally respond better to treatment.  Read more about our Consent to Treatment policies below.

What do I do if I need immediate physiotherapy advice or treatment?

We are a Primary Care Musculoskeletal Outpatients Service and are therefore not equipped to deal with emergency/ urgent medical care.

If you are experiencing significant Musculoskeletal pain, please contact your GP to discuss options for pain relief. Our Physiotherapists cannot provide prescriptions for medication.

If you need urgent medical help, use the regular NHS 111 online service.

The 111 online service asks questions about your symptoms to help you get the help you need.

Call 111 if you need urgent help for a child under 5 or cannot get help online.

For life-threatening emergencies, call 999 for an ambulance.

What if I need to cancel my physiotherapy appointment?

Please call 020 8778 9050 as soon as you know you will be unable to attend an appointment so it may be offered to other patients. Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours prior to the appointment. Should you wish to cancel over the weekend or out of hours, please leave a message on our answer machine or contact us here.

Cancellations without the required notice may incur a cancellation fee.
