Your step-by-step guide
1. Speak to your GP
Increasingly patients can now self-refer for certain services or in specific circumstances, such as self-funding patients, however, it's always worth speaking to your GP, optician or other healthcare professional first as they can advise which type of hospital specialist is most appropriate for your particular symptoms. Also a GP referral letter is always very helpful as it will provide your consultant with useful information on your medical history.
