Your Procedure
Why choose a Consultant MSK Radiologist?
Not all clinicians performing image-guided procedures have the same training or experience. Understanding the difference helps you make an informed choice about your care.
At least 12 years of medical and specialist training before appointment as a consultant.
Thousands of image-guided procedures performed across NHS and private practice.
Fully qualified to prescribe medications, manage complications, and choose the right imaging modality for your condition.
12+
years of specialist training
Full Prescribing Rights
Tailored medication selection — corticosteroids, viscosupplements, and advanced therapies
Multi-Modality
Ultrasound, fluoroscopy, MRI, and CT-guided procedures — not limited to one technique
Your Consultants
Named specialists, not faceless radiology
Every scan and procedure is performed by a consultant musculoskeletal radiologist with subspecialist expertise. You will always know who is looking after you.
