Physiotherapy Services in Derbyshire

Services

First Contact Physiotherapists work as part of the multidisciplinary team within local general practice, alongside GPs, nurses, and a wide range of clinicians across the Primary Care Network.

They assess and diagnose a broad range of musculoskeletal conditions, from straightforward presentations to more complex cases.

Following a thorough clinical assessment, they can also refer patients to appropriate services, including physiotherapy, orthopaedics, and pain management. By discussing the most suitable clinical pathways, they help ensure that decisions are both clinically appropriate and patient centred
