Golf Injury Assessment

When you’re passionate about golf, the last thing you want is an injury to affect your handicap. At Prime Health we’re expert in diagnosing, treating and managing niggles and injuries to get you back on par. Our Sports and Exercise Medicine Consultants and associated specialists work with professional golfers to ensure they perform at their best, and they’ll do the same for you. They'll ensure that not only is your injury treated, but the cause of it is addressed too. Keep You Golfing.

Overview

Maybe you were injured on the golf course, or perhaps an ongoing niggly pain is affecting your play. Maybe the way you’re playing is the cause…

Whatever the source or symptom, getting treatment from an expert who really understands the game can, not only help sort out your pain, but also make a real difference to the quality of your golfing performance.

Amateurs as well as professionals might experience back pain, tendonitis in the elbow (often known as ‘golf elbow’), knee pain or a shoulder/rotator cuff injury. If these are ignored or left too long without a diagnosis or treatment, it won’t only affect you out on the green but also your day-to-day life.

At Prime Health we understand that when you are injured it’s important to receive an accurate diagnosis from a highly experienced sports injury expert as it can make a significant difference to the success of any treatment you receive.

We are proud to have worked with numerous elite sports professionals, from Premier League footballers and PGA Tour Champions to Team GB Olympic Athletes and Rugby Union players.

Using our experience, we have developed a comprehensive Golf Injury Assessment which includes:

  • An initial consultation with a specialist sports and exercise medicine consultant
  • Diagnostic scanning (3TMRI/x-ray/ultrasound) of the injured area to determine the injury and ensure an accurate diagnosis
  • A follow-up consultation with a sports and exercise medicine consultant for your results and a treatment management plan

The Sports and Exercise Medicine Consultants and specialists that practice at Prime Health are backed by a first class, on-site comprehensive private diagnostic service which offers scans of a particularly high quality. We have over a decade’s experience in accurately and effectively minimising and assessing sports injuries using state-of-the-art diagnostic scanning technologies using some of the most experienced radiologists.

We also recognise that the management of sports injuries can be complex, and often no single approach will be adequate on its own. Our consultants can quickly refer you on to a highly experienced multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, who offer a wide range of musculoskeletal pain management treatments and solutions, and rehabilitation therapies including physiotherapy and joint injections.

We’re here to keep you golfing.
