MSK Doctors (0333-335-5848), a new clinic founded by musculoskeletal specialists including Professor Paul Y. F. Lee, has launched a self-referral program that offers patients fast diagnosis for back pain, sports injuries, and other musculoskeletal conditions.

Sleaford,United Kingdom - December 20, 2022 /PressCable/ —
The recently opened MSK Doctors clinic offers patients a unique combination of fast access to diagnostics, top musculoskeletal specialists, and innovative technology that is not available anywhere else in Lincolnshire County. Patients can use their recently launched self-referral program to schedule an MRI scan, without requiring a referral from another doctor.

The new MSK Doctors clinic uses an Open MRI Scanner and computer robotic vision center in Lincolnshire to help patients receive diagnoses for back pain, sports injuries, and other musculoskeletal issues, without having to wait for an appointment with the overburdened NHS. Patients who already know what body part they need to be scanned can book an MRI within one week, or schedule a virtual pre-MRI consultation with the medical team for more information.
The Open MRI Scanner used at the clinic offers several advantages over traditional scanners, including the option to take Dynamic Motion MRI Scans. Using the motion scanning technique, patients can have the affected area scanned while it is moving, which can provide the consultant radiologists with more in-depth information about the problem.
All patients will have their diagnostic tests assessed by top UK Certified Harley Street Specialist Musculoskeletal Consultant Radiologists, with the clinic not using reporting Radiographers. Patients may also book an appointment to review their scans slide-by-slide with a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon.
Unlike a traditional MRI, the Open MRI Scanner has no sides, allowing patients to scan injured body parts in positions that would not be possible using standard diagnostic machines. The open design has also been useful for patients who suffer from claustrophobia, or who have concerns about fitting the affected body part into a normal MRI.
A spokesperson for the clinic said, “There is no need for a GP or medical consultant referral. You can easily refer yourself for an MRI scan via our online system. If you know what you want, simply tell us about which part of the body you want scanned. Answer some safety questions and book online the time and date that works for you.”
