Paediatric Physiotherapy
Children’s appointments while Ciara is away
Back spring 2027Ciara, our paediatric physiotherapist, is on maternity leave until spring 2027, and we wish her all the best. While she is away we can still see children and teenagers aged 10 and over, and for younger children we have suggested where to turn in the meantime.
Paused until spring 2027
We are not able to see babies or children under 10 until Ciara is back. If your child needs help sooner, here is where to turn:
- Your GP, who can advise and refer you to NHS children’s physiotherapy
- Your health visitor, for babies and children under 5
- The APCP directory of private children’s physiotherapists, searchable by postcode
Still seeing patients
Anita and Charlie, our clinical leaders, are seeing children and teenagers aged 10 and over for all injuries and musculoskeletal issues.
