Alongside his work at The Blackheath Clinic, Yash practises as an NHS First Contact Physiotherapist, specialising in the assessment, diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal conditions, sports injuries, tendon problems and persistent pain presentations. His approach is centred on helping patients understand what is driving their symptoms and guiding them to safely return to sport, work and everyday activities through personalised, evidence-based rehabilitation programmes.

Working within our doctor-led clinic enables Yash to collaborate closely with GPs and other healthcare professionals when further investigation, imaging or specialist referral is required.

Ive been seeing Yash for a number of years for ongoing hip and muscular issues as I get older. He listens well and asks relevant questions to diagnose issues. Yash is very careful, thorough and skilled with his diagnosis and solutions/remedies. I'm extremely grateful for the support Yash has given me. Thank you!

I came in with an ankle problem that had been bothering me for a few months. After three weeks of treatment, it was feeling so much better and I was back to normal. Really pleased with the care and would definitely recommend.

Clinical Leadership

Dr Eoghan Mac Sweeney

Dr Eoghan Mac Sweeny

Dr Eoghan Mac Sweeney trained at University College Dublin and has worked in private medicine for over 20 years.

As Clinical Director of The Blackheath Clinic, he oversees the wider medical services within the clinic and supports the development of an integrated, patient-centred approach to care.

The clinic operates as a doctor-led, CQC-registered medical environment, allowing close collaboration between physiotherapy and onsite medical services where clinically appropriate.

  • A Doctor-Led Multidisciplinary Clinic

    Physiotherapy at The Blackheath Clinic is part of a wider medical setting rather than a standalone treatment service. This means patients can benefit from a more coordinated approach where symptoms are complex, persistent, or require further medical input.

    Our aim is to ensure patients receive the right support quickly, clearly, and within one calm clinical environment.

  • Modern medical facilities
  • Thoughtfully designed interiors
