Self-Referral for MSK Health

What Can I Self Refer For?

You can refer for any MSK problems involving bones, muscles, nerves, or joints as well as persistent pain. For any other problems please visit your GP. If you complete a self-referral that cannot be treated by us we will contact you to advise where you should be referred.

When Should I Self-Refer?

Self Refer if you have been suffering from the problem for over 6 weeks. If your problem is less than 6 weeks old please check our Support with New Aches & Pains page for help and guidance. If you need urgent treatment/are in serious pain please visit your GP or an Urgent Treatment Centre / Accident& Emergency department.

How Do I Self Refer?

Please answer the questions below to be directed to the correct online form. Please include as much information as possible about the problem(s). Also include any other medical conditions that may affect you (even if they don't specifically relate to the problem you are referring for).

PIFU (Patient Initiated Follow Up)

If you have concerns or worries about the problem you spoke to us about please get in touch. A clinician will review the details and a member of the team will be in touch. We can telephone you or arrange to see you in one of our clinics. Contact us to access your Person Initiated Follow-Up (PIFU).
