"Expert Physio"

About: Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital / Physiotherapy

(as a service user),

My daughter had been limping badly so GP referred us to Physiotherapy at RACH as she may have hypermobility and some advice was required. 

I just want to thank the amazing and obviously highly expert physio Alison who seemed to realise immediately something was seriously wrong, got us seen for x- rays at A and E straight away which confirmed that at some point my daughter had fractured her hip. 

I am extremely grateful for the expertise of Alison. The hip only being a wee bit sore it wasn't picked up by GP nor had there been any massive pain that would have made me go the A and E route.

Children and RACH are very lucky to have the skilled professionals like Alison there for them.

Many thanks again. :)

Hi happy32156, Thanks for your feedback and I hope that your daughter is now fully on the mend.

It sounds like Alison did a fabulous job of getting to the root cause of your daughters limp. I am so glad that she was able to provide the expert advice and treatment that your daughter so obviously needed. I will pass on your great feedback to Alison, who I am sure will be delighted with your feedback. I will also share this with the physio team and the wider hospital. Thanks.
