Allied Health Professionals
Our allied health professionals (AHPs) play a vital role in supporting patients with digestive and liver conditions. Working closely with consultants, they deliver practical advice and therapies to complement treatment.
Why choose Welbeck private allied health professionals?
Digestive and liver conditions often require more than medical or surgical intervention alone. At Welbeck, our AHPs ensure each treatment plan considers the whole person — from nutrition and movement to mental wellbeing and lifestyle. They help you understand your condition and actively participate in your recovery. The team comprises GI physiologists, dietitians, nutritionists, physiotherapists, pelvic floor specialists, and specialist nurses, who combine clinical expertise with compassionate care to help you manage symptoms, recover from treatment, and maintain a healthy digestive system. They collaborate closely with our consultants to bridge the gap between diagnosis and daily living, helping patients translate clinical advice into practical, achievable change. This joined-up approach is at the heart of our digestive health service, where all care is coordinated and centred around your individual needs.
