Never been, but I was told by a doctor who works there that they have physios, access to X rays etc.
I had a couple of sessions there when I first sprained my ankle. It was good for free treatment but you didn't get the one-on-one attention you would from a paid physio. The facilities were good although all I used was the gym.
Be careful giving medical advice over the internet. Another forum I visit had to ban it because they were held responsible for any advice given. If someone dies as a result of a forum post I'm pretty sure nope, as the publisher, would be in trouble.
