How it works
Once you've booked your appointment, you will progress through the pathway as follows:
Step one: Phone triage
A clinical nurse specialist will call you at your pre-booked appointment time to discuss your symptoms and medical history. This information will be shared at a multidisciplinary team meeting for our consultants to discuss.
Step two: Diagnostic tests
Our consultants will decide on the best diagnostic tests for your case; they may also decide to conduct a virtual consultation with you prior to your tests being carried out. A member of our team will contact you to book your appointment. Your tests will be carried out at our west London hospital.
Step three: Follow-up
You will attend a follow-up consultation with your lead consultant to discuss your results and next steps if required. If you require treatment, you will be referred to a relevant specialist at the hospital.
