The practice also includes a physiotherapy and hydrotherapy unit with an aquatic treadmill and K-Laser, run by qualified physiotherapists.
The team is experienced, friendly, and supportive, with many staff members having long tenures. Wellbeing is a priority, with a focus on work-life balance and a team of wellbeing champions.
