Referral form for clients and vets
Please find our animal referral form which needs to be completed by your referring vet.
If your animal does not have an injury, and you are wanting maintenance/performance physiotherapy please disregard the forms below and book straight in.
No forms are needed for human patients but please read our animal and human terms and conditions prior to your first appointment with us.
Paraprofessionals we work closely with;
If you are looking for an orthopaedic clinic for your dog we work work closely with Moores Orthopaedic Clinic. We will provide coordinated care meaning regular communication with your vets to get you reaching your goals. You can visit their website here.
We pride ourselves in working holistically, whether it's a soft tissue injury, but you are concerned about weight gain, nutrition, behaviour, working with our paraprofessionals is so important.

*Unfortunately, the title ‘Animal Physiotherapist’ is not protected, meaning anyone can call themselves a physiotherapist without university qualifications or governing body regulations. The CSP, ACPAT and the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons are trying to change.
ACPAT and the CSP are the governing bodies we are a member of. They are professional networks ensuring the highest standard of animal and human physiotherapy is being met. To become a member of ACPAT you have to be a human physiotherapist first.
When you choose an ACPAT physiotherapist you are receiving high quality and experienced physiotherapy for both you and your animal. If you would like more information, please visit www.acpat.org .
