Who you will actually see

Two clinicians, and the appointment belongs to one of them from start to finish. Here is what each of them is trained in, so you can decide before you book rather than after you arrive.

The rooms

Where the work happens

Both clinicians work out of the same suite inside Jensen Lakes Medical Centre on St Albert Trail. Ground floor, no stairs, and a large free car park outside.

A treatment room with a plinth, a stool and a window — A treatment room. One patient, one clinician, door closed.

The corridor leading to the treatment rooms, level and without steps — Level access from the door through to the rooms.

Short-stretch bandages, foam and a soft ball laid out for a compression appointment — Compression materials, kept in stock rather than ordered in.

A folded towel, gloves, a measuring tape and gel laid out before a physiotherapy appointment — Set out before you arrive, not while you wait.
