WE ARE OPEN
As providers of ‘Healthcare Services’ and at the request of Public Health England and our Governing bodies, the Practice has been open throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, subject to the required infection control procedures and precautions. Everyone (provided they are not required to be isolating) is allowed to attend medical/healthcare appointments.
Unfortunately Massage Therapy with Rachel Fry and Reflexology/Bowen Therapy treatments with Vicki Ball have had to be temporarily suspended and the studio is closed for the time being. However, we are working towards reintroducing these services and our studio classes as the relaxation of rules allow.
Please be assured that we will continue to take measures to ensure our setting and our services remain Covid-secure.
Please ensure you complete our Covid-19 screening questionnaires sent by email prior to your appointment (initial questionnaire to establish your vulnerability, and then before each and every appointment you will be required to complete a symptom survey, recent exposure risk and declaration of health)
DO NOT COME TO THE PRACTICE IF……
- You have any symptoms of Covid-19 now or have had at any time in the last 10 days
- You have had contact with anyone with symptoms, diagnosed or not in the last 14 days
- You have returned from a country subject to quarantine restrictions in the last 14 days
Please help us to keep everybody safe by wearing a clean face mask when you visit the practice – ensure it covers both your mouth and your nose. We also ask that patients use the hand sanitisers provided and observe social-distancing guidelines.
WHAT IF A PATIENT OR PRACTITIONER TESTS POSITIVE?
Please follow this link for details of the practice policy if a patient, practitioner or member of staff becomes ill or tests positive.
IF YOU DEVELOP SYMPTOMS OR TEST POSITIVE WITHIN 3 DAYS OF AN APPOINTMENT, PLEASE LET US KNOW IMMEDIATELY.
We understand that everyone’s situation is different and while some patients will be happy to attend for treatment during this period of lockdown, others may prefer to cancel/postpone their appointments. Whilst our normal cancellation policy applies, we will not be charging for late cancelled appointments when patients develop Covid symptoms in the 24 hours prior to their appointment. However, we do ask all patients who decide to cancel their appointments to let us know IMMEDIATELY as we often have people in need on our waiting lists (out of hours, send an email to info@thebroadstreetpractice.co.uk or leave a message on the answerphone at 01780 480889).

We run a range of studio-based classes which encompass therapeutic and beginners Yoga, Pilates (including clinical Pilates classes run by our physiotherapists), Exercise Rehabilitation sessions, as well as a strength & balance class which aim to reduce the risk of falls in older adults and breath coaching classes for people with dysfunctional breathing patterns.

The Broad Street Practice
Quality healthcare in the heart of Stamford
ESTABLISHED in June 1996, almost 25 years ago the practice has registered over 17,000 patients. We are committed to providing excellence in complementary and mainstream healthcare.
PROFESSIONAL and highly qualified, our experienced team of independent practitioners will adapt treatment to suit patients of all ages and most states of health. All practitioners are insured and registered with their relevant governing bodies. We work closely with NHS services and private health providers and our fees may be recoverable from many health insurance schemes (please check with your provider).
OUR COLLABORATION of like-minded practitioners constitute an extraordinary coming together of talent and experience in complementary and more conventional healthcare disciplines. 90% of our patients arrive at our door through word of mouth recommendation; sent by friends, work colleagues and other healthcare professionals – many of whom are our patients themselves.
APPOINTMENTS are available from Monday through to Saturday, with some early morning and late evening appointments, we endeavour to keep some short notice appointments available for urgent cases. We have a fully staffed reception, an ‘out of hours’ answer-phone and emergency contact telephone number. There is usually no need to obtain a referral to the practice from your GP – most of our patients self-refer (please check if you plan to make a claim against your private health insurer).
Choosing which might be the most suitable treatment option for you can often be confusing so please call the practice and a member of our knowledgeable reception team will try to help. Should your enquiry be more complex, they will try to arrange a free, informal chat with one of the practitioners.
IN THE HEART OF THE COMMUNITY the practice is easy to find in the middle of Stamford, on the corner of Broad Street and Star Lane. Our doors are open and our friendly staff are ready to welcome you and deal with your enquiry. Call us on 01780 480889
