I work for the Newcastle Outer West Primary Care Network as a First Contact Physiotherapist, which involves assessment, diagnosis and management advice for musculo skeletal conditions.  I also work for the Tyneside integrated musculo- skeletal service (TIMs) and have experience working with a diverse range of patients including post operative and traumatic injuries as well as atraumatic and persistent pain patients.  The First Contact Physiotherapist service allows patients quicker access to the right care for their health condition, and should reduce the need for further intervention and higher waiting times.
