I visited the MSK Department at Fairfield after suffering with Knee and Ankle pain for the past 6 weeks. I only had to wait approx 2 - 3 weeks for the appointment which was pretty good.
The Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner I met was extremely friendly and put me at ease. I was given a very thorough examination after a detailed conversation on my symptoms and previous medical history.
Everything was explained to me clearly and in detail. After the examination the Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner sent me for a X-Ray and a Blood Test (both undertaken on the same day at Fairfield). I was also referred to a Rheumatologist, however Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner told me that if I needed to discuss anything further with them then it would be ok to contact them.
All in all a very good experience.
