Did you know we offer First Contact Physiotherapy appointments at AMG – with NO GP referral needed?

First Contact Physiotherapists (FCPs) are highly trained physiotherapists, usually based in GP surgeries.

You will be asked to explain your problem and the clinician will aim to provide detailed assessment, leading to diagnosis and an outline of the available options thereafter. If necessary the clinician can request exactly the same investigations as your GP could, and can make exactly the same specialist referrals, and in some cases could deliver interventions such as joint injections.

📅 Arrange an appointment by:
🖥 Completing an eConsult form via our website
📞 Calling reception on 01665 656000
