What is a Minor Injuries Clinic?

Kingsbridge Minor Injuries & Fracture Clinic offers a valuable resource for patients who need prompt treatment for non-serious injuries, allowing them to avoid long waits at the emergency department (ED) and receive care in a familiar, accessible setting.

Our GP-Led Minor Injuries Clinic is a specialised service that treats a variety of non-serious injuries. These clinics are staffed by experienced healthcare professionals, including GPs and nurse practitioners, who are trained to handle minor injuries quickly and effectively.

The goal is to provide immediate care for injuries that do not require the advanced resources of a hospital ED.
