You have just stood up from the chair. Before you book anywhere else in the city, run these five checks: named clinician, CQC registration, assessment first, a premises you can visit, and a number for aftercare.
Dr Callum Shields MBChB MRCS leads the clinic at 14–16 Whitworth Street, Manchester M1 3BS, registered with the CQC after a registration assessment. Suitability is a consult. Individual results vary.
Read the team on our about us page. Face-to-face history sits on consultations.
Ask for the named clinician
Ask who will be in the room with you. Get a GMC or NMC number you can search on the public register. Write the name down before you leave.
Dr Callum Shields MBChB MRCS: a named clinician should take your history in the room before treatment. If the person on the website is never the person you meet, stop and ask why.
What does CQC registered mean for a clinic?
CQC registration is a legal listing on the Care Quality Commission register. It follows a registration assessment. It covers the regulated activities the provider is allowed to offer.
At Thriyv those activities are treatment of disease, disorder or injury, and diagnostic and screening procedures. Search the CQC register for the provider name Thriyv Ltd. For a longer note on what CQC registration is, read CQC registered clinic Manchester.
What qualifications should my practitioner have?
For medical treatments, look for a doctor on the GMC register or a nurse on the NMC register. Ask for the number. Look it up the same day.
Dr Callum Shields MBChB MRCS: qualifications belong to the person treating you, on that day, in that room. Ask who holds indemnity for the procedure you want.
Is a consultation required before treatment?
Yes. A face-to-face assessment and medical history come first. We decline or delay if the intake is unclear, if you are unwell, or if the treatment is a poor fit.
Book that first visit through our consultations page, or call 0161 566 5099. Screening is how we decide whether you lie down that day.
A premises you can visit
Walk in. The clinic is at 14–16 Whitworth Street, Manchester M1 3BS, between Piccadilly station and Kampus. You should be able to see the rooms, the desk, and who is on shift.
A pop-up lounge with no address you can visit is a reason to pause. Come and look at the space before you commit to a course of treatment.
Aftercare and who you call
Ask who you phone if something feels wrong after you leave. Get a number that is answered. Write it in your notes.
For Thriyv that is 0161 566 5099 or info@thriyv.co.uk. Pain that worsens, new swelling, dizziness that does not settle, or anything that feels wrong is a reason to call. If it is urgent, use NHS 111 or 999.
Is CQC registration the same as a CQC rating?
Registration and a rating are two different CQC records. Thriyv Ltd is registered after a registration assessment. Search the CQC register for the provider name Thriyv Ltd. A rating is a separate published record; do not treat a register listing as a rating.
Keep the five checks on your phone. They are the same list we give anyone asking how to choose a doctor-led clinic Manchester: named clinician, CQC registration, assessment first, a premises you can walk into, and a number for aftercare.
