Orthopaedic care
Orthopaedic treatment and care
Your treatment and care begin as soon as you meet with one of our consultants. They are specialists in their field, meaning you can feel reassured and confident in your treatment.
You’ll be in expert hands for all your care
Your consultant can call on the support and expertise of a whole team of multidisciplinary experts. That means specialist musculoskeletal radiologists reporting back on your X-ray, MRI or CT scans; it means nursing and theatre teams specially trained in orthopaedics; and it means full post-surgery support from our physiotherapy team to get you back to doing the things you love, as soon as possible.

Book your appointment
Booking an appointment with us couldn't be easier. You can call, or book using our online consultant directory.
If your treatment is going to be covered by private medical insurance, we'll need your insurance member number and authorisation code, so you'll need to have them to hand along with your referral letter.
We'll do everything we can to confirm your consultation there and then but, if that's not possible, we'll get back to you with a phone call or email within 24 hours.
