What to expect at your consultation

From your first consultation to the next step, take time to ask about anything unclear.

  1. Discuss the problem and your expectations

    Your symptoms, health history and any previous procedures are considered together.

  2. Consider the options

    If surgery is recommended, discuss its purpose, alternatives, risks and what would happen without it with your doctor.

  3. Plan preparation and follow-up

    Clarify your procedure instructions, whether admission is needed and the follow-up plan.

Prepare before your visit

A little preparation helps you remember important details during the consultation.

First visit guide
  • Prepare X-ray and MRI images together with their reports.
  • If there was an injury, explain when and how it happened.
  • Note movements you find difficult at work, while walking or during sport.

Your questions

This information does not replace your individual examination or treatment plan.

Does every joint pain require surgery?

No. Treatment options are assessed according to examination and findings.

When can I return to sport?

This is an individual decision based on the injury and recovery. Do not apply a timescale found online to your own situation.

Should I bring older images too?

Previous images and reports can help assess changes. Share the relevant records you have.
