How to book

You can book directly with the hospital; no agent or intermediary is needed.

What to bring

Earlier results speed up the diagnosis and avoid repeating tests unnecessarily.

  • Previous X-ray, MRI or CT images (on CD or as a digital copy) and their reports
  • Earlier clinic letters, operation notes and discharge summaries
  • A list of the medicines you take regularly
  • Any referral letter you have

In an emergency

For a new, serious injury — an obvious deformity, a wound with bone showing, bleeding that will not stop, a numb finger or one you cannot move, or a severed finger — do not wait for an appointment: go to the nearest emergency department.
