The Practice has noticed a significant increase in the amount of patients using the facilities of private healthcare providers which may be a result of the increasing waiting times in the NHS.  We are happy to support patients in obtaining quicker access to the appropriate speciality. In order to do this you may require a GP referral letter.

A GP referral letter can be written providing:

• If you have consulted with a GP regarding this problem 
• or, have already been referred to a NHS hospital 

If appropriate please complete the form below.  Your referral will be available to collect from the surgery within 5 working days.  

A GP referral letter cannot be written if:

• you have consulted with another healthcare provider (not the GP) ie, optician, physiotherapist etc, regarding this problem. Please ask them to provide your referral letter.  
• you have not consulted with a GP regarding your problem.  Please contact the Practice to make an appointment with a GP.
