Complaints procedure

If something about your care hasn’t been right, here is how to raise it, what I will do, and the independent routes open to you.

Raising a concern with me

If you have a complaint or concern about any aspect of your treatment, please let me know as soon as possible.

Please give me full details of your complaint and I will undertake to treat it seriously, deal with it promptly and learn from it by reviewing or, if appropriate, improving my standards.

Make your complaint to me either in person or by email, at complaints@davidgrahamosteopath.co.uk.

What I will do

I will investigate your complaint over the following few days and will aim to:

  1. Find out what happened and what went wrong.
  2. Make sure you receive an explanation, and an apology if this is appropriate.
  3. Identify what I can do to ensure that this problem does not arise again.

If you’d rather not come to me directly

If you feel uncomfortable complaining directly to me, or do not feel that your complaint has been resolved to your satisfaction, you can speak to the Institute of Osteopathy.
