Sports and Exercise Medicine is a broad based speciality that has recently been accorded specialist status in the UK with the establishment of the Faculty of Sports and Exercise Medicine.
Our specialists are involved in the development of the specialty through teaching, training, examining and appraising other sports medicine specialists.
Sports and Exercise Medicine not only include the treatment of musculoskeletal injury but involves accessing the right advice whether that be about exercising with chronic medical conditions, rehabilitation, sports psychology or providing information about drugs or nutrition.
Our Sports Medicine specialists provide a comprehensive assessment and treatment service with access to comprehensive diagnostic testing including the latest imaging technology and laboratory testing.
