What happens at the appointment?

You’ll have an initial assessment with one of our consultant spinal surgeons. They’ll begin the process of diagnosis, arranging any tests or scans you may need.

Right from the start, our consultants work closely with the other members of our multidisciplinary team. These include physiotherapists, radiologists, pain management specialists and other surgeons.

We offer fast, accurate diagnosis and look to build a holistic treatment plan that is truly adapted to your individual needs.
