WPA (Western Provident Association) is a not-for-profit health insurer based in Bath, known for flexible policy structures and strong customer service. WPA is popular among small business owners and professional practices across Surrey, including many patients in the Kingston, Surbiton, and New Malden area who have held WPA policies for many years.
As a CQC-registered clinic (Registration: 1-13774886305), Lambert Sports Clinic meets the clinical governance standards required by WPA and all major private health insurers. Our HCPC-registered physiotherapists are trained to the highest professional standard and maintain annual CPD requirements. We provide clinical notes and outcome measures in the format required by WPA for audit purposes.
Lambert Sports Clinic is experienced in working with WPA's varied policy structures. Our administrative team can help you navigate the pre-authorisation process and confirm whether your specific WPA plan requires a GP referral before you attend. Call 020 8133 5694 and we will advise before you book.
WPA policies vary significantly in their referral requirements. Some WPA plans allow direct access to physiotherapy without a GP referral; others require a GP letter or online consultation first. Before booking at Lambert Sports Clinic, call WPA on 01733 307 3000 or check your policy documents at mywpa.co.uk to confirm whether you need a GP referral. This avoids any risk of your claim being declined on a technicality.
WPA physiotherapy session allowances vary by plan. Standard WPA plans typically provide 10–15 sessions per condition. Some premium plans have higher or unlimited limits. Check mywpa.co.uk or call 01733 307 3000 for your specific entitlement.
Log into mywpa.co.uk or call WPA on 01733 307 3000 to confirm your physiotherapy benefit, annual session allowance, and any policy excess that applies. Having this information ready speeds up the pre-authorisation call in step 2.
Call WPA on 01733 307 3000 with your membership number and a brief description of your condition. WPA will verify your eligibility and issue a pre-authorisation number (sometimes called a claims reference). Note this down — you will need it in step 3. This call typically takes 5–10 minutes.
Call our reception on 020 8133 5694 or book online at the link above. Let us know you are a WPA member and provide your pre-authorisation reference. We will note this against your record and confirm your appointment. No payment is required at this stage — we will bill WPA directly after your first session.
At your first appointment, bring your WPA membership card and your pre-authorisation reference. After treatment, you pay only your policy excess (if applicable). We submit all invoices electronically to WPA, so you will not need to manage any paperwork. Subsequent appointments are booked directly with us at the same insurance rate.
WPA covers physiotherapy for the full range of musculoskeletal conditions at Lambert Sports Clinic. Because WPA policies vary more than those of some larger insurers, it is especially important to call WPA on 01733 307 3000 to confirm your session allowance, referral requirements, and any excess before attending.
What to expect at your first WPA appointment: Your initial physiotherapy session at Lambert Sports Clinic lasts 45 minutes.

You will leave with a clear diagnosis, an initial treatment plan, and realistic expectations for your recovery timeline. For Kingston upon Thames and the KT1/KT2 postcode area patients, the full visit including travel is typically under two hours.
