Our Mission and Values

Our mission is to care for individuals with muscle and joint health issues and sports or recreational injuries through careful clinical assessment, appropriate diagnostics, targeted medical interventions, and collaboration with other healthcare professionals. Given the many benefits of being active, we also aim to support people in removing barriers to participation in exercise or physical activity.

Accessibility
We are committed to offering timely care for musculoskeletal issues, recognising the importance of prompt treatment. Our goal is to provide quick access to both in-person and virtual consultations, ensuring patients get the support they need without unnecessary delays.
Precision
Our approach is to provide as clear a diagnosis as possible, allowing us to create targeted, goal-directed, effective treatment plans that offer reassurance and a clear path forward.
Transparency
We believe in transparent communication. If surgery may be required, or if the case extends beyond non-surgical solutions, we’ll refer you to the appropriate specialists as soon as necessary, ensuring you get the right care at the right time.
Evidence-Based Practice
Our care is guided by three key pillars: the best available medical evidence, your personal goals and preferences, and the clinical expertise of our practitioners. This balanced approach ensures that every treatment plan is tailored to your unique situation.

Feedback & Follow-Up

Your feedback is crucial to us.

We value open communication and schedule follow-ups to track your progress, adjust treatment plans if necessary, and ensure that we’re meeting your expectations at every step of your recovery.

Atlas is a great resource for me as a physio to get quick access to doctors with an interest in my cases. They communicate well and having worked with Conor and Billy, I know that my patients will be looked after.

It’s handy to get into a doctor locally and avoid taking time off work to go to a hospital clinic. Billy in Atlas sorted me out quickly and I was back playing sooner than I thought!

I found Conor’s assessment really thorough, and he listened to the concerns I had about exercise. He also made sure I understood how I should exercise myself for my health, which gave me great confidence. I would definitely recommend Atlas!
