Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness, or disability. It can also help to reduce your risk of injury or illness in the future.

 

Rob Garbutt our First Contact Physiotherapist (FCP) is the first point of contact for all things musculoskeletal. His role is to triage and consult with patients who present with acute musculoskeletal problems. He is based at the surgery and works Monday-Thursday.

A FCP does not provide ongoing physiotherapy sessions; they triage as an initial point of contact and then either treat within the consultation or refer to external services.

To arrange a consultation with Rob please call our reception team on 01757 211750.
