The Broad Street Practice

I found Nick Birch understood my problem from the start of the appointment, having had a conversation with me beforehand. He took note of the way I was moving and explained the causes, did a thorough bone density scan and gave me a run-down on the meanings of the various measurements on the diagrams.

He told me that the way forward would be to have exercises and stretches and as I had been to Sarah on previous occasions to have further physio appointments with her.

Later the same day he followed up with a letter to me confirming his analysis and recommended treatment and letting me know the letter would also go to other parties involved, including my GP. I was very heartened by my visit which has given me renewed determination to do my part in improving my condition.

I elected to have a course of acupuncture sessions to help relieve the pain of Plantar Fasciitus. I found Jo George extremely helpful and understanding, giving me advice, not only about acupuncture, but also what else I might do to help get rid of this very painful condition.
I choose the Stamford practice as being the nearest to me and, therefore, the most convenient. Staff on arrival were friendly. Reception area is small but with a few seats and magazines and literature to read. Jo George came down to meet me and show me to her room. The room itself was bright. clean and warm. I had a private consultation which lasted about an hour and half and then the first session of acupuncture.
