MSK Clinicians at Carlisle Healthcare

Patients of Carlisle Healthcare with joint and muscular problems may now be initially assessed by one of our physiotherapy practitioners rather than a traditional GP appointment.

They can help patients with musculoskeletal issues such as back, neck and joint pain by:

• assessing and diagnosing issues
• giving expert advice on how best to manage their conditions
• referring them onto specialist services if necessary

For an appointment, please contact us online call the Reception Team on 01228 588121. The appointment will either be a telephone call or face to face consultation.
