Report
I have visited the practice three times for a shoulder problem and all seemed fine on the first two visits but on my last appointment my back was manipulated and I now I am suffering the most horrendous back problems. I have spent the last three weeks in agony and I am unable even to pick up my new born baby. I am a firefighter and will now have have to go sick, I am really worried now for my career. Please think twice before you let someone loose on you from this practice, I hate to write things like this but I am now in an awful situation and in much more pain and discomfort than I ever was
