Axis Triage Service

The Triage appointment is an important and required step that needs to occur before your specialist consultation.  The purpose of this appointment is to better understand your injury and relevant history, make sure we book you in with the right doctor, at the right time and to ensure your rehabilitation is underway.

When your specialist has all the necessary information and details about your problem they can focus on a thorough assessment and treatment plan. This triage appointment doesn’t replace any existing support you may be getting from your GP or preferred physio provider.

There is no charge for this appointment, and it can be done either in person or by video – whatever suits you best.

Why does this help you?

• Put you with the right specialist first time, reducing avoidable re-bookings.
• Identifies urgent issues early, so nothing important is missed.
• Plans investigations in the right order, saving time and repeat visits.
• Clarifies your goals and next steps, so your specialist consult can focus on decisions.
• Improves continuity. Your specialist starts with a clearer picture of your injury.
