SEM Doctor
Our Sport and Exercise Medicine (SEM) doctors can help with a variety of issues.
Pre-participation medical screening:
Depending on what event you are taking part in, there may be additional medical tests required. That may include a medical appointment with a doctor to sign you off as ‘fit to compete’ and sometimes requires a resting ECG. We can assist with this and suggest sending over your paperwork in advance so we can ensure you have everything you need on your visit.
General performance and medical related issues:
Including under performance or overtraining. We can help guide you to further investigations including cardiology and blood testing and monitor this to ensure you are in the best shape for your sport.
Medication queries and anti-doping advice:
Sometimes it can be a difficult area to navigate if you are unsure about specific supplements or medication and how it will affect you competing. We are happy to chat through any questions/queries you may have and guide you to safe options.
Injection therapy:
In addition to our corticosteroid and Ostenil injections which a number of our practitioners can administer, Dr Milne can offer these under ultrasound guidance. For more information, visit Injection Therapy.
Injury Diagnosis & Management:
Our SEM doctors can assist in the diagnosis of injuries and assessment of problems. They can arrange follow up imaging and appointments with specialists where necessary.
