In order to provide the best level of service we strongly recommend patients get a referral from a GP before booking an appointment with us. Referrals allow us to prioritise and ensure we have the information we need to prepare for your first consultation.

Once we receive the referral we will notify the patient by post or phone of the appointment time.
