Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GP referral for a sports medicine consultation?
No. You can book directly. The specialist will assess your injury and advise on the next steps, including any imaging needed.
What injuries does this cover?
Common problems include muscle strains, tendon injuries, ligament sprains and overuse conditions. The consultation identifies the cause so treatment and rehabilitation can be targeted.
Will I have a scan during the consultation?
Not always. The specialist may arrange an ultrasound or MRI where needed. An ultrasound can often be organised quickly.
How soon can I return to sport?
This depends on the injury. The consultation sets out a rehabilitation plan and clear guidance on returning to activity safely to reduce the risk of recurrence.
Do I need to be an athlete to book?
No. The consultation suits anyone with an injury from exercise or activity, whatever your level, from occasional exercise to competitive sport.
