Clinic Update November 2022
While the government have removed the remaining domestic restrictions in England, it remains our continued priority to the safety and wellbeing of our clients, staff and the community. The clinic will continue to operate under the protocols that we have been following and the guidelines issued by the Public Health England and our governing body, since we re-opened on the 15th July 2020.
The clinic is continuing to offer face to face appointments as normal. Remote video / phone consultations remain in place. Many patients have continued with this as an option. During these difficult financial times this pathway saves money, your travel time and costs. A remote consultation works well for many acute conditions eg acute low back pain where 70% will resolve with the appropriate advice only. With the current difficulty patients have accessing their primary healthcare provider, the remote option works well to manage acute issues quickly and where you can be signposted to the most relevant practitioner and when relevant can be referred for imaging investigation or onward referral to our network of private GP's or consultants. For those who have had COVID-19 and are in the recovery phase and needing guidance with your recovery, this can also be handled remotely, without the need to access the clinic in person.
When you attend the clinic for a face to face consultation, we will continue to follow the strict protocols of our clinic. Despite the change in government guidelines, if you test positive for Covid or are unwell, you MUST NOT attend the clinic. We ask that you inform the clinic and cancel your appointment. Face masks will continue to be worn by staff and patients. Please follow any further guidance you are given at the time of booking or at your appointment, to ensure safety for all parties, the community and particularly our most vulnerable clients.
Thank you for your continuing support and patience during this time and we look forward to seeing you remotely or in the clinic soon. To book your consultation, please call the clinic on 0121 323 3281.
Stay Healthy and Safe,
Best wishes,
