One-stop Dupuytren’s Clinic

Spire Edinburgh Hospitals offer remote consultations for diagnosing Dupuytrens’ contracture and one-stop treatment clinics which provide quick and easy access to private patients across Scotland, both self-funded and insured.

Patients can self-refer online, uploading photos of their hands via Edinburgh Dupuytren’s Group website. A follow up telephone consultation is usually all that is required to finalise treatment options.

Face to face consultations, if required, take place at Spire Shawfair Park Hospital where all corrective surgery will also take place.
