Our approach to wellbeing and performance

Beckford Sports is a Specialist Sports, Exercise and Performance Medicine clinic with a strong family and community focus. We take a holistic approach to wellbeing, and support our patients from the time of injury through the rehabilitation process and ongoing performance improvement. 

Specialists

Our specialists have worked with elite athletes, dancers and teams from the  Crusaders Development Squad to the Football Ferns. We bring this knowledge into our practice, and use the same model as we would use for an elite athlete to care for our patients and their families. 


Our team is passionate about ongoing learning and we incorporate the latest science and research into our injury management to create bespoke treatment plans tailored to each patient’s clinical needs.


Our team works cohesively to ensure that you receive prompt investigations and personalised care. Our focus is on making the treatment process simple, approachable, and easy to understand whilst maintaining clear communication with our referrers. Patients are welcome to directly book appointments to see our Sports Doctor without the need for referral.
