COVID restrictions are being eased in the community. However, to maintain our COVID-secure environments we continue to enforce the controls we have in place which help to keep our patients and staff safe. When you come to a Circle Health Group hospital you will still be required to wear a face mask. If you are medically exempt from wearing a mask we will provide a visor.

All of our hospitals are open and treating patients and we are providing both virtual and face-to-face appointments. Please be assured that we will continue to follow national guidance, and that delivering best care is at the heart of what we do.

Physiotherapy: Our physiotherapists will continue to offer expert guidance and exercise advice. They are able to email you video and picture guidance. If you are experiencing general lower back pain, they can offer you free access to a back application, Kaia- which provides daily exercises, education and support.

You can do the exercises in the comfort of your own home.

Extended Scope Physiotherapy/Podiatry and GP with Special Interests:
