Mr Carter has a specialist interest in sports injuries of the foot and and and works regularly with a number of professional and elite level sports teams and organisations. He has a keen interest in rugby and regularly treats the Glasgow Warriors and SRU (Scottish Rugby Union) players. He regularly treats Premiership Football players from around Scotland in addition to Scottish Gymnasts, dancers and athletes from the Scottish Sports Institute.
