Strike action by junior doctors will take place at our hospital and community sites from 7am on Tuesday 11 April to 7am on Saturday 15 April. We'll contact you if you or your child’s appointment is affected. We apologise for any inconvenience.

A number of transport strikes are due to take place this March. If you or your child has an appointment at one of our hospitals or community centres, please plan ahead and do all you can to attend. If you need to cancel your appointment, please contact your clinical team.

Orthotic community service

Our community orthotic service provides a range of orthoses (artificial aids that support unstable and/or painful joints) including:

  • footwear
  • insoles
  • ankle foot orthoses
  • knee braces
  • spinal braces/supports
  • upper limb orthoses
  • compression garments
  • custom-made orthoses.

We are primarily located at the Bowley Close Rehabilitation Centre, and we are linked with the diabetic foot clinic at King's College Hospital.

We run specialised orthotic clinics for children at Sunshine House and the Mary Sheridan Centre.

More information about our adult services is on the Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust website.
