(as a service user),

My 14 year old was seen twice in the Physiotherapy Outpatient department at Sick Kids Edinburgh for long term back pain. The appointments were complicated by the fact that my daughter suffers quite badly with anxiety and OCD. Both of the physiotherapists (Cormac and Rebecca) were amazing with my daughter. Thank you both so much for being so understanding, compassionate and brilliant at what you do. 

My daughter is now considering if she could be a physiotherapist when she is older. 🥰

Dear Mumc,

Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback about our paediatric MSK service and the staff. I am happy to hear we were able to help support your daughter to attend and offer help and advice to improve her health.

That’s great to hear she would consider physiotherapy as a career. We want to make it as easy and quickly as possible to make things better for children and you are helping by leaving your story.

Best wishes,

Rosemary Gaunt
