OSVi integrates all areas of musculoskeletal healthcare.

For many patients, their acute care management and rehabilitation pathway can be confusing. At OSVi we remove the confusion by collaborating to make the best possible management decisions for every patient. Patient management is periodically modulated by outcomes garnered from our research and testing facility.

We hold ourselves accountable to the utmost standard of individualised and attentive care throughout both the acute and rehabilitation phase, accompanying each patient on their journey towards long-term recovery, enabling them to successfully reintegrate into employment, social activities, or sports.
