In 2009 we built a successful patient-centred website to facilitate the education of people who were treated by the EMS team and indeed anyone else who cared to visit the site. A lot has changed in the past eight years, perhaps the most significant being firstly a change in the clinical direction of the clinic to one of diagnosis, non-invasive treatment and rehabilitation and secondly the increasing frequency with which users access the site on a tablet or smart phone.
A lot of older websites are described as being "smart" and able to adjust to modern technology, but this often makes them slow and cumbersome. To combat this, we decided to greatly simplify the www.thebackdoor.org website and rebuild it from the ground up so that it is accessible across all common platforms.
Most of the Quick Reference content is accessible from the accordion below in an easy-to-use format and there are further learning opportunities available in the EMS Hub.
Some of the previous content we had on the site has been rewritten and re-edited with the permission of the site owners and can be found via www.teamrehab.uk if you can't find what you want here first.

East Midlands Spine Ltd (EMS) is the name of the clinic through which consultant spinal specialist Nick Birch FRCS (Orth) and his team deliver care to patients with spinal conditions in a timely, friendly and clinically proficient manner. The clinic has an excellent reputation for delivering effective service and quality across a wide range of spinal conditions. This is based upon a primary focus of giving patients time to interactively explore their clinical symptoms, to have a comprehensive physical examination and then to fully understand the results of any relevant imaging. Once a diagnosis has been made, a treatment plan is constructed based upon the most up-to-date, evidence-based options available. EMS staff are convinced that key to this treatment strategy is time, the precious commodity that patients so often are not afforded in other healthcare environments.
Based in the very modern Bragborough Hall Health and Wellbeing Centre, EMS is very well placed to help you to optimise your spinal healthcare.

The prices at EMS Ltd are kept simple and transparent so that you, the client, can always make an informed choice.
Private medical insurers (PMI's) often have separately negotiated contracts with healthcare providers and you will need to contact your PMI to find out whether your policy covers the EMS Ltd fees for your treatment.
As a result, we urge all clients to read the EMS Ltd prices schedule in full before contacting the clinic to book an appointment.

One of the primary reasons that we set up 'www.thebackdoor.org.uk' in 2009 was to provide learning opportunities for our patients. Since then, times have changed, the old hub got a little rusty, the websites got bigger, so we decided to design a new one for you to make searching for the spine related information that you want, easier.
