Suegnet Meyer
Advanced MSK Physiotherapist, Diagnostic MSK Sonographer & Independent Prescriber
MSc Sports & Exercise Medicine | MCSP | HCPC Registered | CASE-accredited MSK Sonographer | Independent Prescriber
Suegnet Meyer is an experienced Advanced Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist and Diagnostic MSK Sonographer with specialist postgraduate training in musculoskeletal ultrasound, ultrasound-guided injection therapy and independent prescribing.
She is the founder and clinical lead of Meyer Physio in Weybridge, Surrey, where her practice focuses particularly on persistent and complex musculoskeletal conditions, diagnostic ultrasound and image-guided treatment.
Her approach is based on a simple principle:
Understand the problem first, then decide how best to treat it.
Advanced Musculoskeletal Practice
Suegnet has extensive experience in the assessment and management of musculoskeletal and sports-related conditions, with particular interests in:
- Shoulder and rotator cuff disorders
- Knee pain and osteoarthritis
- Tendon disorders and sports injuries
- Persistent or recurrent musculoskeletal pain
- Musculoskeletal diagnostic ultrasound
- Ultrasound-guided injection procedures
- Complex cases that have not responded as expected to initial treatment
Rather than relying on imaging findings in isolation, ultrasound is used alongside a detailed clinical history and physical examination to help answer specific diagnostic questions and guide management where appropriate.
Not every patient requires imaging or an injection. Where another investigation, medical opinion or specialist referral would be more appropriate, this is discussed as part of the assessment.
Diagnostic Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Suegnet completed postgraduate CASE-accredited training in musculoskeletal diagnostic ultrasound at Brunel University London.
She subsequently worked as a Band 8 MSK Sonographer at the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust, gaining further experience in diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound within an NHS imaging environment.
At Meyer Physio, diagnostic ultrasound may be incorporated into the clinical assessment when appropriate, particularly for conditions involving peripheral joints, tendons, muscles, ligaments and bursae.
Where ultrasound is not the appropriate imaging modality, patients may be advised to seek X-ray, MRI or further specialist assessment.
Ultrasound-Guided Injection Therapy
Suegnet has postgraduate training in both landmark and ultrasound-guided injection therapy and performs a range of image-guided musculoskeletal procedures where clinically indicated.
These may include:
- Corticosteroid injections
- Hyaluronic acid injections
- Cingal® injections
- Arthrosamid® treatment for appropriately selected patients with knee osteoarthritis
- Joint and bursal aspiration
- Hydrodistension for frozen shoulder
- Barbotage for appropriate cases of calcific shoulder tendinopathy
- Other ultrasound-guided musculoskeletal procedures within scope of practice
Ultrasound guidance allows the target structure and needle to be visualised in real time during the procedure.
Injection therapy is considered as one component of a wider management plan rather than as a standalone solution.
Independent Prescribing
As an HCPC-registered Independent Prescriber, Suegnet is qualified to prescribe medicines within her professional scope of practice.
This enables medication decisions associated with appropriate musculoskeletal treatment pathways to be integrated into the patient’s assessment and management where required.
Sports & Exercise Medicine
Suegnet holds an MSc in Sports & Exercise Medicine from the University of Bath.
Her sports medicine background informs her approach to both recreational and competitive athletes, particularly where accurate diagnosis, rehabilitation planning and return to sport are important.
She has worked with patients from a wide range of sporting backgrounds and combines clinical assessment with progressive rehabilitation based on the individual’s sport, physical demands and goals.
A Focus on Persistent & Complex MSK Problems
A significant part of Suegnet’s clinical work involves patients who have:
- Persistent symptoms despite previous treatment
- An uncertain or changing diagnosis
- Recurrent tendon or joint problems
- Failed to progress with initial rehabilitation
- Been advised to consider an injection and want a detailed assessment first
- Reached a point where they are unsure what to do next
The aim is to provide clarity and a defined plan rather than continuing treatment indefinitely.
Depending on the findings, this may involve rehabilitation, diagnostic imaging, an injection-based treatment pathway, medication within scope of practice, or referral to another healthcare professional.
Working With Patients & Referring Clinicians
Meyer Physio accepts both self-referring patients and referrals from healthcare professionals.
Where appropriate, Suegnet communicates with GPs, consultants and other clinicians involved in a patient’s care and can provide clinical and diagnostic ultrasound reports to support onward management.
