You should expect a calm and quiet space for us to talk and find out how I can help you. I will always be honest with you.  If I think you will be better off with a different practitioner or need a further medical referral, I will tell you. ​After discussing the results of the history and examination with you, we might find it useful or necessary to contact your doctor for further clinical information, or for investigations to be arranged, e.g. X-rays, a scan, or blood tests, before proceeding with osteopathic treatment. This would be done only with your full approval, and you may request a copy of any correspondence.
