Our concerns & complaints procedure is only to be used if you have a concern or complaint about one of our osteopaths or the service provided by support staff at the clinic. If you would like to raise concerns about another practitioner working at the clinic we would suggest you contact them directly. if however you would like us to be involved we would be willing to act as a mediator.

We would encourage you to raise issues as soon as they happen or as soon as you can. However, we realise that this is not always possible or your problem may not be able to be sorted out in this way.
