Attending one of our clinics


During clinical visits, you will meet many experts from different backgrounds as part of your assessments, diagnosis and therapy recommendations. The patient pathway below has been created to help you understand what you might expect.

As you first engage with our medical professionals your needs will be assessed and your journey will be similar to the one below. If you have any questions or concerns about the process, just ask a member of the team and we will do our very best to provide you with an answer.
