Harlequins is delighted to announce the renewal of its partnership with Fortius Clinic as the Club's Official Sports Medicine Partner.
Fortius Clinic, part of Affidea Group, will continue to support the medical teams of the Club’s Men’s and Women’s programme beyond the 2024/25 season. The medical experts at Fortius Clinic provide the Club with industry expertise and specialist advice, alongside facilitating priority access for Club Members.
Fortius Clinic has clinics across London which offer outpatient consultations and imaging including MRI, X-ray, CT and ultrasound. It provides a full range of orthopaedic surgery at Fortius Clinic London, Fortius Surgical Centre and via its partnership with Spire St Anthony’s Hospital in South West London.
Fortius Clinic, the UK’s largest independent orthopaedic group, will continue to extend its leading insight and expertise to Affiliated community rugby club coaches. This will ensure sports medicine and orthopaedic treatment is understood and implemented at all levels to protect player welfare throughout the game.
Fortius Clinic Chief Executive Officer Nicola Aspinall said: “We are looking forward to our third season supporting Harlequins as their Official Sports Medicine Partner.
Our relationship with the Club’s players, medical team and supporters is really important to us. As is ensuring we provide exceptional care to everyone we treat. Our patients can be reassured that they will receive the latest evidence-based treatment to help them achieve their best outcome.”
Harlequins Head of Medical Services Brian O’Leary said: “Fortius Clinic continues to be a valuable partner and resource to the Men’s and Women’s medical departments at Harlequins.
Due to the physical nature of our sport, unfortunately injuries can be a by-product of the game. Fortius Clinic has world leading experts in the field of Sports Medicine and Surgery, and we enjoy a very close relationship that enables our players to get the very best level of care and allows them to get back performing on the pitch as soon as possible.”
