Pure Sports Medicine Avis 432

I would like to say a huge Thank You to Francesca Sills, who has been working with me for 6 months and has changed my entire mindset to exercise and the gym. I never thought regular exercise could actually be enjoyable. She has made every effort to understand me and my motivations, and it's worked. Frankie is both professional and friendly - we have had the best few months. Thank you.

I started working with Leigh Johnson (Canary Wharf) in the summer of 2023 after a severe ankle break (tri-malleolar fracture) in April 2023. At that point, I was recovering from my second surgery, using crutches full time, wearing a protective boot, had lost most of the muscle in my left leg and couldn’t move my toes. I was told that it was likely that I wouldn’t be able to run in the future. Fast forward ten months and thanks to Leigh’s help and guidance I have started to run again for the first time in nearly a year.
Leigh was fantastic throughout my recovery.
Firstly, Leigh is extremely diligent / knowledgeable. My sessions were tailored to my condition, and I left every session with a clear plan of the exercises that I should be doing at home to further my recovery before my next session. During each session, Leigh clearly explained/demonstrated every exercise as well as its importance / relevance to my recovery.
Secondly, Leigh was very kind and personable throughout. Being unable to walk for a total of five months meant that I was often very down, but Leigh always made each session as positive and engaging as possible. Leigh was always very conscious of my capabilities / any pain I was in and adapted sessions accordingly. For example, after my second surgery I developed stress fractures due to a bone density issue and Leigh adapted my entire programme to account for this new injury and set out a clear road to recovery. This helped me to process what was, at the time, a minor physical but major psychological set back.
Thirdly, I felt that Leigh went above and beyond to aid my recovery. She sent me follow up emails after sessions to remind me of the exercises I needed to do, she suggested different ways to improve discomfort that I had with my ankle. For example, she recommended using a nighttime ankle brace which has significantly reduced the pain that I used to have in the mornings. She also helped to arrange strength and conditioning and podiatry sessions to further aid my recovery as well as helping me find new coaches in Dubai after I left London for work.
Leigh has been key to my recovery success, and I have no doubt that I wouldn’t be able to walk / now start to run pain free if it wasn’t for her guidance. I will continue to see Leigh in the future to help with the recovery from my fourth (and hopefully final) surgery. Thank you Leigh, you have been amazing and I am extremely grateful for all of your help over the last year!

I required a scan and a steroid injection, followed up with physio. The Doctor was great walking me through the whole process, injections are not my favourite thing!

The follow on Physio again designed to increase the mobility and strength in my shoulder, allowing my confidence to grow in the treatment.

A year of pain going away is a strange feeling, and the assurance that as long as I took things gradually, then i would be able to keep it that way.

I contacted Pure Sports Medicine with a view to building my core strength as I'd had a few back injuries and to help fight off middle-age. I had previously used the PSM team for some physio and have always like the considered approach.

From the moment I contacted Dean at the Bank branch I was impressed with their approach which was not looking to oversell or overpromise, but considered my age and starting point. Frankie (Francesca Sills) then helped to devise a progressive programme that allowed me over the course of a few months to build up my core strength during our weekly sessions and sessions I did myself through the week. Having had PTs previously who pushed larger weights which ended up causing injuries, I liked the variety, pace and comprehensiveness of Frankie's approach.

Unfortunately I am no longer able to commit to the weekly sessions but Frankie has helped to devise a programme that I can continue with a view to checking-in on a less frequent basis to keep the progress going.

My experience at Pure Sport Medicine was very positive. I recovered from knee pain to eventually run a marathon over the course of 9 months. Thank you very much to Zac Mackenzie for all of his help and guidance.

Be very careful about the additional charges here. Similar to another review I was charged an additional £300 for ultrasound treatment during the appointment, meaning my total bill was nearly £700. And yes, I signed the form prior to the treatment, agreeing to additional cost for ultrasound but assumed this was a charge intended for a separate follow up, not part of original consultation. If I had been told by the Dr that use of the ultrasound during the initial consultation was £300 extra I might have made a different decision. As the experts it is incumbent on the surgery or the doctors to explicitly explain how the additional charges work. And when I expressed my frustration I was told that “ I had signed the form” so there was nothing they could do. What you could do is be transparent about your charges.

Exceptional service!! I’m so thrilled with my experience with Finn.
Finn took a great amount of time understanding my problem, asking me very thoughtful questions. It was obvious right from the start he was very knowledgeable and high skilled, well trained practitioner.
We then did some testing which provided some pivotal, but more importantly, objective information and data, that will form the basis of my rehab . Usually I’m left overwhelmed and confused by all the numbers, however , Fin start to finish explained all components so clearly . His natural Australian light heartedness came across and really made the experience so enjoyable.
I left so clear on my next steps, where I need to focus on, but also so positively about the journey ahead . Admittedly, I wasn’t in the best frame of mind about my injury, but the reassurance, factual evidence and plan forward Finn provided really gave me so much confidence that I would return to the athlete I once was.
I would recommend Finn to any athletes who’s looking to get back to performance, and would also recommend him to anyone who enjoys a good laugh !

My experience with Pure Sports Medicine Moorgate has been outstanding from start to finish.
Lauren and the team took great care of my broken finger and were very helpful to get it back on track.

Dr Burdon has been amazing, very friendly, professional and explained the issue very well

An excellent and highly professional service. Would have no hesitation to recommend

This is now my second visit to Doctor Mike Burdon. The first time he cured ITB bursitis in my knee joint and I was recently under his care again for an ongoing hip issue. As always Doctor Burdon worked his magic and I was pain free. I cannot rate Pure Sports Medicine more highly and I really like Doctor Burdon’s advice and medical help. He always follows up with me regularly after any treatment to make sure I’m making progress and the pain is subsiding. Thanks Mike & PSM

I’m writing a review on behalf of my father who has seen Melanie White on and off for a couple of months now. She is fantastic at her job, has been correct every time. I’ve had investigations with different physiotherapists who have wrongly diagnosed and dismissed my concerns however Melanie has been excellent from the get go addressing my needs and fuelling me with information that has actually been beneficial. I can’t thank Melanie enough and will continue to see her for my on going rehab. I recommend Melanie to anybody who is looking for a Physiotherapist.

Everything I could want in a physiotherapist, kind, personable, listens to what I want and really works on your problem area- got to the route of my problem. I would definitely be going back.

I have been using chiropractors for years and always ended up in the same position (pain and frustration). I can honestly say that I only wish I had met Dan Jones at sports pro medicine earlier than at the age of 52. His level of attention to detail and responsiveness to my extremely sore back problem has been incredible and my pain level is lower now than it has been in years after only a week. If you need a professional physio, I cannot recommend Dan Jones from Pro sports medicine enough. Thank you Dan and all the team as PSM. 👌

I went to Pure Sports Med for a knee problem and I saw George Brassil. He was very positive, kind, professional and put me at ease immediately. Instead of just working on the symptom, he helped diagnose the root cause of the problem and helped me work through it. With his help within a month, the issue had subsided. I would highly recommend the practice.

I went to Pure Sports Medicine in June when I was first consulted by Dr John Etherington CBE who diagnosed me with Achilles tendonopathy. I followed his advice and visited Pure sports medicine in Raynes Park for some physio sessions. At that clinic I worked with Asha Read seeing her about every second week over 5 months. She showed a lot of expertise and care. She tailored the exercise program to my situation and updated it based on my progress. With the program progressing in line with my symptoms, that helped me tremendously with my Achiles tendon. I got from being barely able walk to being able to play full tennis matches (which is my main sport) pain free. I highly recommend Asha and the rest of the staff from Pure Sports Medicine.

Asha is a great physiotherapist! I have every faith that she will help me to get my shoulder back to good working order

I saw Rebecca Christensen for help recovering from a slipped disc in my back. I cannot stress enough how much Rebecca has helped me gain confidence in exercising again after a nasty injury and surgery. Not only is she a brilliant physiotherapist technically, she really made an effort to understand my mindset and worries and chat through these too.

Pure Sports Medicine staff have always been thoroughly professional and the environment as a patient there is excellent. Would definitely recommend the facility and Rebecca herself for any issues you are facing.

I've been seeing George Brassil at the Bank location for treatment of Peyronie's Disease and can't speak highly enough of the service I received. George goes above and beyond for his patients and my condition has improved significantly. George is thorough, passionate and highly professional and I'd recommend him to anyone seeking Men's Health advice or treatment.

I began seeing Mariana for headaches caused by tension in the neck which were having an immense impact on my every day life. As soon as I began my treatment with her, she was able to conduct an assessment and pinpoint exactly what was going on that was causing the pain. She did some manipulations and massage as well as gave me a set of exercises to do daily. She explained how the exercises worked and how they were going to assist in strengthening my neck and back muscles which would then reduce the risk of the headaches. After beginning the exercises, I almost immediately began to feel better and within a few weeks the headaches were completely gone. Throughout the entire time I was being treated by Mariana she was both very professional and personable. She clearly has a strong love for what she does and it shows in her ability to treat her patients. She is a fantastic osteopath and I couldn’t recommend her more.
