About me
Dr. Chris Jones is a Consultant in Musculoskeletal, Sport and Exercise Medicine (SEM). He has wealth of experience in managing sports injuries, in both elite and non elite athletes. He has experience working in a FIFA Medical Centre of excellence which specialises in the non surgical management of musculoskeletal conditions. He focuses on the patient, not just the injury in order to optimise health during recovery.
Dr Jones has a background in General practice and he has also worked at several football clubs including Chelsea FC Academy, Charlton athletic and Leyton Orient.
Dr Jones was awarded a masters in Sports and Exercise Medicine at University College London in 2015. His research project on ‘ultrasound measurement of chest wall thickness in elite rugby players’ won an award at the BASEM 2015 Congress and led to changes in acute pitch side emergency care.
