First Contact Physiotherapist

Marta is a first contact Physiotherapist based here at Station Drive Surgery!

If you have a problem affecting your neck, back, bones, joints or muscles but you are not actively unwell at the moment, you can book an appointment with Marta. 
This will give you faster access to expert diagnosis and you'll leave with the advice and exercises you need to start tackling the problem. She can also refer you on to hospital services where necessary and organise tests and prescriptions.

Nationally, just 5% of patients choose to see a GP afterwards and 96% would recommend the service to friends or family. 
If you think this could be beneficial for you, please contact reception on 01584 872461.
