Musculoskeletal Medicine, without the wait.

Assessment and treatment for joint and soft-tissue pain, from tennis elbow to arthritis, including musculoskeletal and joint injections carried out on-site.

Overview

Joint and soft-tissue pain, assessed properly.

Aches, sprains and joint pain that linger are easy to put off. Dr Dana carries out a hands-on assessment of the affected joint or soft tissue, talks through your history, and agrees a plan with you, whether that's simple advice, monitoring, or an on-site injection.

From tennis elbow and plantar fasciitis to arthritis and gout, musculoskeletal complaints are assessed and managed at the clinic, with musculoskeletal and joint injections carried out on-site where appropriate.
