Referrals 📄
As physios in NZ, we can do a lot - ACC injury forms, X-ray referrals, ultrasound referrals, and even write GP letters requesting MRI.
But just because we can, doesn’t mean we always will ❗️
We follow clinical criteria to decide when imaging will actually help your diagnosis or change your treatment plan. Our job isn’t to scan everything, it’s to educate you, guide you, reassure you and keep your rehab moving forward with the right tools at the right time.
If you’re unsure whether you need a scan, chat to your physio first‼️
