As Seen On
Conditions Our Specialists Treat
We provide deep, clinical assessments for complex joint and tendon conditions. Led by top private MSK consultants in Birmingham, we treat the following conditions:
Tendonitis & Tendinopathy
For some patients, PRP may help reduce chronic tendon pain and improve function when physiotherapy alone has not been enough. Evidence is still developing, and results vary. Suitability is confirmed at consultation. Conditions include Tennis Elbow, Golfer's Elbow, Achilles Tendonitis, Patellar Tendonitis (Jumper's Knee), and Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy.
Ligament & Muscle Injuries
For some patients with acute sports injuries, PRP may help reduce pain and support a return to activity. We use treatment protocols also used by professional football clubs. Evidence is still developing, results vary, and suitability is confirmed at consultation. This includes Ankle Ligament Sprains, MCL/LCL Knee Sprains, Hamstring and Calf Muscle Tears, and Plantar Fasciitis (Heel Pain).
Osteoarthritis (Early to Moderate)
For joint wear and tear, PRP may help reduce pain and improve movement for some patients. Evidence is still developing, and results vary. Suitability is confirmed at consultation. We treat Knee Osteoarthritis, Hip & Shoulder Arthritis, Ankle & Foot Joint Pain, and Thumb Base Arthritis.
Combined Therapy (PRP + HA)
We offer a combined Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Hyaluronic Acid treatment. For some patients, this may help reduce pain and improve movement, with HA used to cushion the joint. Evidence is still developing, results vary, and suitability is confirmed at consultation.
Our Advanced Diagnostic & Injection Services
We provide high-frequency MSK ultrasound access during your appointment to accurately assess the joint and guide the injection.
MSK Ultrasound Scan
A non-invasive, real-time scan to visualise the extent of the tear, inflammation, or arthritis. This helps us see whether PRP may be suitable.
Ultrasound-Guided Delivery
Every PRP injection is performed under ultrasound guidance to ensure the platelet concentrate is delivered exactly into the damaged fibres or joint space.
X-Ray & MRI Referrals
If further imaging is required to rule out fractures or severe degeneration, our consultants can arrange immediate referrals.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Pre-Consultation Preparation
Hydrate well before your appointment, as we will need to draw blood. Avoid anti-inflammatory medications (such as ibuprofen) for 48 hours prior to the procedure, as they can suppress platelet response.
During the Appointment
- Blood Draw (Venipuncture): We take a small blood sample from your arm, similar to a standard blood test.
- Centrifugation: The blood is spun in a centrifuge machine to separate the red blood cells from the plasma and platelets.
- Extraction: We extract the liquid gold, the plasma rich in platelets and growth factors.
The Procedure
- The site of injury is cleaned and sterilised.
- Using real-time ultrasound, the Consultant guides the needle precisely to the damaged tissue.
- The concentrated platelets are injected into the area assessed at your consultation.
Post-Assessment Care
You may experience mild soreness for 2-3 days afterwards. We provide a tailored recovery plan, usually involving relative rest followed by gradual loading exercises.

Frequently Asked Questions
PRP is a treatment that uses a patient's own platelet-rich plasma. For some patients, it may help reduce pain and improve function in injured tendons, ligaments, muscles, and joints. Evidence is still developing, results vary, and suitability is confirmed at consultation.
A course is often used rather than a single injection. We typically recommend a course of 3 injections, spaced 2-4 weeks apart, depending on the condition. Suitability is confirmed at consultation.
Yes. Because PRP uses your own blood (autologous), there is no risk of allergic reaction or rejection. The main risks are minor (bruising, soreness) and are minimised by using ultrasound guidance and aseptic technique.
Yes. Some patients have PRP and HA in a single session for arthritis and joint pain. PRP may help with pain and function, and HA is used to cushion the joint. Evidence for the combination is still developing, results vary, and suitability is confirmed at consultation.
The blood draw is like a standard blood test. The injection itself can be mildly uncomfortable, but we use local anaesthetic and ultrasound guidance to ensure the process is quick and precise.
No, you can book directly with us without an NHS GP referral.
