Physiotherapy

Rob Garbutt our First Contact Physiotherapist (FCP) is the first point of contact for all things musculoskeletal. His role is to triage and consult with patients who present with acute musculoskeletal problems. He is based at the surgery and works Monday-Thursday.

A FCP does not provide ongoing physiotherapy sessions; they triage as an initial point of contact and then either treat within the consultation or refer to external services.

To arrange a consultation with Rob please complete a request on our Online Consultation platform KLINIC or call our reception team on 01757 211750.

If you're over the age of 17 and have a musculoskeletal problem, you can self-refer for treatment.

The aim of the website is to provide help and information to assist you in the early management of common injuries and pain problems. We also offer detailed guidance on living with a long-term condition such as osteoarthritis.

The second aim of the website is to promote and support long term musculoskeletal health. You will find lots of information and resources on the website to help you get and stay active, stay healthy at work, and manage your physical health alongside your mental health.
