Best sports clinic/medical center in Dublin 1 for a back injury?

    Hey Folks

    I injured my back at the gym last week. I thought/hoped that a week of laying on the sofa and using gels/sprays/heat packs & popping Neurofen Plus as if they were Smarties would do the trick, but alas it has not. :(

    Can anyone recommend a walk in sports clinic or medical clinic in general that could help me figure out what is going on? I do not live in Ireland year round, so I do not have a GP to go to. I also don't have health insurance, but really, the cost doesn't bother me. I just want somewhere that specializes in this kind of thing, and that hopefully will not have a long waiting line.

    I live in the IFSC in Dublin 1, so somewhere close by would be great as walking is very, very hard for me right now. I would really love to go somewhere that can do any required scans & xrays there and then. If they send me to hospital and I have to sit for ages on hard waiting room seats, I think I will shoot myself.

    Thanks. :)

    Sports Sugery Clinic in Santry is probably the place to go - but you'll need to get a taxi :)

    (I'm not sure if they do non-referred visits but check their site and give them a call)
