The people you’ll see
We are a small practice on purpose: few enough to know each patient, enough to cover the body and the head.

One file, shared
Alder started in 2014 with one room on Harbour Street and a physiotherapist who was tired of sending patients away to be seen by someone else. Today the same building holds five treatment rooms and a gym, and Linden Court, around the corner, two quiet rooms for psychology and nutrition.
What hasn’t changed is the way we work: every patient has one file and one plan, shared between the people who treat them, with their consent. A physiotherapist and a psychologist who talk to each other get further than two who don’t.

How we work
Listen first
The first visit is mostly talking. What you want to do again matters more than where it hurts.
Say it plainly
No jargon. If we don’t know what is going on, we say so, and who might.
Share the plan
One file, read by everyone who treats you, so you never tell your story twice.
Let you go
The goal is that you stop needing us. We say when that is.
