Sports & Exercise Medicine for every level of athlete
One team for injury, performance and long-term health — sports medicine physicians, nutrition, sports massage, performance profiling and strength & conditioning under one roof. Structured monthly programmes from £199, or a one-off specialist assessment from £260.
Sports and exercise medicine is about more than fixing injuries. It's the science of keeping you moving, performing and healthy — whether you're recovering from a torn hamstring, chasing a marathon PB, or using exercise to manage a long-term condition. The Vesey brings the whole team together: medically qualified sports physicians who diagnose and treat, alongside nutrition, sports massage, performance profiling and strength & conditioning — all coordinated around your goals.

How a programme works
A sports & exercise medicine physician takes your history, examines you, screens your movement and agrees your goals.
Performance profiling and your Randox sports panel (Advance & Elite) set a clear, measurable baseline.
A personalised plan across training, nutrition, strength & conditioning and recovery — built around your week.
Monthly reviews — with quarterly re-testing on Elite — track your gains and adjust the plan as you improve.

Comprehensive joint injection service
One of the most complete musculoskeletal injection services in the region — delivered under ultrasound guidance for precision, by clinicians who perform them every week. We'll recommend the right option for your diagnosis and explain the evidence, benefits and costs before you decide. See the full joint injection service →
Targeted, ultrasound-guided injections into joints, tendons and soft tissue to relieve pain, settle inflammation and support recovery — the foundation of our injection service.
A modern injectable hydrogel for knee osteoarthritis. A single injection cushions the joint and can provide lasting relief — an alternative when other treatments have stopped working.
Concentrated platelets from your own blood, injected to harness your body's natural healing for tendon injuries, osteoarthritis and chronic soft-tissue problems.
Corticosteroid injections for fast, targeted reduction of inflammation and pain in joints, bursae and tendons — often used to unlock rehabilitation.
Viscosupplementation that lubricates and cushions arthritic joints, improving comfort and movement — particularly for knee and hip osteoarthritis.
A regenerative technique that stimulates the body to repair and strengthen lax or painful ligaments and tendons, helping stabilise chronic joint problems.
A high-volume, ultrasound-guided injection used for stubborn chronic tendinopathy — such as Achilles and patellar tendons — to break down abnormal new vessels and nerves driving pain.
All injections are carried out under ultrasound guidance where appropriate for accuracy and safety. Suitability is assessed at consultation; not every treatment is right for every condition.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GP referral?
No. You can book directly with our sports and exercise medicine team — no GP referral is required at any stage.
How is a sports medicine doctor different from a physiotherapist?
A sports & exercise medicine physician is a medically qualified doctor — they diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, perform diagnostic ultrasound and injections, and order investigations. Physiotherapists, S&C coaches, nutritionists and massage therapists deliver the hands-on rehabilitation and performance work. At The Vesey they all work as one coordinated team.
What's included in the Essential, Advance and Elite Sport programmes?
All three are monthly programmes. Essential Sport (£199/mo) covers assessment, an injury or training plan, monthly review, nutrition guidance and one sports massage. Advance Sport (£499/mo) adds the Randox Sports Performance blood panel, performance profiling, a 1:1 nutrition plan, a structured S&C programme and two massages. Elite Sport (£999/mo) adds the Randox Sports Performance PLUS panel, full profiling with quarterly re-testing, a dedicated S&C coach, ultrasound/injections as needed, four massages and priority consultant-led care.
What is the Randox Sports Performance panel?
It's a comprehensive blood test for active people — full blood count, kidney and liver function, lipids, key nutrients (vitamin D, B12, iron/ferritin, magnesium) and core hormones that affect training, energy and recovery. The PLUS panel adds extended hormonal, inflammatory and muscle-recovery markers for elite athletes. Exact composition is confirmed at booking.
Can I book a one-off assessment instead of a programme?
Yes. A single sports & exercise medicine consultation is available from £260 — ideal for a one-off injury diagnosis and management plan. Many patients then move onto a monthly programme.
Do you only treat athletes?
No. As well as elite and amateur athletes, our exercise medicine service prescribes structured, safe exercise for people with chronic conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and hypertension — and supports anyone returning to activity after a break or injury.
Do you provide boxing and combat sports medicals?
Yes — we are the largest provider of medical care for boxing professionals in the UK. We provide pre-licence and pre-fight medical examinations, annual licensing and commission medicals, MRI/MRA brain and cervical imaging, mandatory blood-borne virus screening (HIV, hepatitis B & C), cardiac and eye assessments, and neurological and concussion review. Call 0121 387 3727 to arrange.
What joint injections do you offer?
Our comprehensive injection service includes standard joint injections, Arthrosamid®, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), steroid (corticosteroid), hyaluronic acid (HA), prolotherapy and high-volume injections — carried out under ultrasound guidance where appropriate. The right option depends on your diagnosis and is discussed at your consultation.
How quickly can I be seen, and do you take insurance?
Most appointments are available within 1–2 weeks, and acute injuries can often be seen sooner. We're open 7 days, 8am–8pm including Sundays. Insurance accepted including Bupa, Vitality, WPA and Healix — or pay per visit.
