In most cases, you do need a referral to see one of our specialists. You will need this before your appointment, and preferably before you book in to see us. You can get a referral from the likes of your GP or physiotherapist, as well as other specialist doctors, A&E.

We appreciate that you will likely have had this problem for some time and that you will have tried some form of treatment. As we are a specialist medical practice this is true for the majority of the patients we see. Making sure that your current treatment is optimal is an important first step. Some form of strengthening exercise, load management and footwear change/orthotic use is important for everyone. Our specialists will also discuss other options including shockwave therapy, injections and other treatments, including surgery.

If an MRI is required, we have slots held at our preferred radiology clinics, and you can often arrange imaging on the same day.
