Pure Physio has been a leading NHS partner since 2016, delivering high quality First Contact Physiotherapists (FCP) and wider clinical services fully integrated within Primary Care. We work collaboratively with Primary Care Networks, Neighbourhood Teams, GP Federations, GP clusters and ICBs across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to provide community based, preventative healthcare that improves population health and reduces system pressure.
