At Nottinghamshire Healthcare, we provide an Musculo Skeletal (MSK) Physiotherapy service to all of our staff from all roles, professions and services.
We offer a fast-track service with minimal waiting lists with no GP referral required, meaning you can see a physiotherapist without having to see a doctor first. This is a self-referral service for both work and non-work related problems.
The service offers a combination of face-to-face appointments, video consultations via MS Teams or telephone consultations based on staff preference.
