Did you know that we have a First Contact Practitioner (FCP) at Court Street Medical Practice?
FCPs are highly trained physiotherapists with extensive experience in the assessment and management of musculoskeletal conditions, and see these patients as the first point of contact.
Musculoskeletal conditions cover a wide range of conditions, including:
🔵 All soft tissue injuries, sprains, strains or sports injuries
🔵 Arthritis of any joint
🔵 Possible problems with muscles, ligaments, tendons or bone
🔵 Spinal pain
🔵 Spinal-related pain in arms or legs, including nerve symptoms
🔵 Changes to walking
🔵 Post-orthopaedic surgery
Benefits include;
Faster access to specialist advice
Fewer onward referrals to see a hospital consultant
On average, 95% of patients did not require a GP follow-up
To book an appointment with our FCP, call and speak to a receptionist on 01952 586616.
