Video Medico-legal Assessments

Remote Video Go Physio

While clients may be shielding or self-isolating due to COVID-19, Nicky can undertake medico-legal assessments effectively via remote video link, rather than the usual face-to-face clinic based setting.  This enables the client to move forward and speedily progress with any recommended treatment – helping resolve their injuries as well as avoiding delays in their claim.

As with our physiotherapy video consultations, video medico-legal assessments are conducted professionally and securely using smart, user-friendly technology.
