Back Pain Assessment Clinic
What is the Back Pain Assessment Clinic?
At Fitzwilliam Hospital we offer a back pain assessment clinic for people suffering from back and neck pain. In this clinic you will benefit from a fast and accurate diagnosis, expert advice and quick access to treatment for back pain, neck pain and sciatica as required.
Simply book a private appointment with one of our consultant specialists for an assessment. If diagnostic tests are required, they will take place onsite at Fitzwilliam Hospital.
What does the appointment involve?
A highly experienced spinal consultant will meet with you, take a case history and perform a complete clinical examination.
After this initial assessment they will then recommend: your referral for appropriate investigations (MRI, CT scan) if required, and back pain treatment options including physiotherapy for hands on treatment and surgery if appropriate.
Physiotherapy care
Alternatively, you can book directly for a physiotherapy assessment of your back and neck pain with one of chartered physiotherapists. They will discuss self-help measures and physiotherapy treatment options to relieve your pain. If they suspect a serious medical condition, they can direct you to one of spinal consultants.
