What to expect

What to expect – NHS referrals

 

Appointments are up to 20 minutes or more by prior arrangement.


The clinic manager will require a referral letter from your GP.  Please ensure you have provided your GP with up to date contact details.  

 

As soon as we have this, we will contact you initially by phone.  If we are unsuccessful in contacting you we will make an appointment for you and confirm this by letter.  

 

If you do not confirm the appointment or arrange to make another appointment, we may refer you back to your GP and you will need to visit your GP again for a new referral.

​

Once you have booked your appointment with us, we will write to you with details of your appointment and will provide a map and directions to the clinic.  

 

Please provide your email and mobile telephone number if possible so we may confirm and send your appointment letter by email and/or text.

 

To cancel or change your policy, please see our cancellation policy page.

​

The orthotist will have your contact details and will have been provided with a brief referral letter by your GP. The orthotist will assess you and may advise you that you require an orthotic product to assist you.  Depending on the product, it may be supplied and fitted on-site during your appointment.

​

At times, a product will need to be ordered.  You may require an additional appointment or appointments for the product to be fitted.

 

Once you have been assessed and supplied with your orthotic product, we will write to your GP informing them of the outcome of your referral to us.

​

We welcome all feedback and you can provide testimonial, compliment or complaint via our feedback form, by email or mail.
