Post-surgical rehabilitation is priced individually. No packages or blocks — you only pay for what you need.

Why an advanced clinical practitioner?

An ACP can prescribe, request imaging directly, perform diagnostic injections and refer to consultants — without a GP middle-step. That means fewer appointments and a faster route to diagnosis.

MSK ultrasound

Real-time scanning of tendons, ligaments and joints while you move, performed by qualified sonographers — no separate referral required.

Ultrasound-guided injections

More accurate than landmark-guided injections. Options include corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid and PRP — always discussed with you first.

Your clinician

Nathan Briganti — MSc, HCPC, CSP, ACP; independent prescriber and MSK sonographer.

  • Munster Rugby and the Philadelphia Eagles
  • Hadley Hospital, Washington DC, and Walter Reed
  • NHS first-contact practitioner

So your first appointment can include assessment, scan, diagnosis and treatment — and onward arrangements — without a separate GP visit.

FAQs

Common questions

Do I need a referral?
No — you can book directly. As an advanced clinical practitioner, Nathan can request imaging, prescribe and refer to consultants without a GP in the middle.
How many sessions will I need?
Simple problems often settle in 2–4 sessions; more complex cases may need 6–12. We're upfront about this at your first visit, and there are no packages or blocks to buy.
Can I have an injection on the same day?
Often yes. Ultrasound-guided injections are discussed first and, where appropriate, can be done in the same appointment.
Can I claim on insurance?
Yes — we provide receipts suitable for insurance claims. Please check your policy first.
