Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioners
Jordan Hepburn
Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner (APP)
Jordan Hepburn is our GP Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner (APP) who works within our practice. If you have, or think you have, a musculoskeletal (MSK) problem, he will provide an alternative to seeing your GP. He provides expert assessment of MSK conditions and joint problems such as back, neck, shoulder or knee pain. He can provide you with a clinical diagnosis, give you advice on how best to manage the condition, and suggest appropriate exercise for you to work on independently. With your agreement and when appropriate, he can refer you to routine hospital physiotherapy for supported rehab, X-Ray or orthopaedics. If needed, he can liaise with your GP to arrange medication or discuss any symptoms which might have been found. You can request an appointment with the GP APP; you may also be directed to them by practice reception staff, who have had training to help them guide you to the GP APP. Your GP may also ask you to see the GP APP for an expert MSK opinion.
