REFERRALS TO SPECIALISTS
When requesting a referral to a specialist it is appropriate to see your doctor who can assess the nature and urgency of the need then arrange for you to see the most suited person.

Please ensure that your letter of referral is collected from the surgery prior to your specialist appointment, unless otherwise arranged.
