Make an Appointment
Making an appointment
Set out below are the contact details for our main Service Departments. The teams in these areas have a dedicated and caring approach to find you the earliest appointment possible with the correct specialist for your needs.
Most patients are referred to us by their GP or another medical specialist as a referral letter is often needed before an appointment can be confirmed.
If you do not have a GP, the Referral Service (listed below) may be able to assist you by suggesting the most appropriate course of action for you to take, given your location and individual circumstance.
If you have medical insurance (e.g. BUPA, PPP, Norwich Union), you will need to contact your insurer to get authorisation for any treatment and, in most cases, you will require a referral letter from your GP.
Referral Service
The Hospital also operates a Referral Service to assist patients and clinicians.
Call the Hospital on 020 7806 4000 and ask for bleep 11 and the bleep holder will advise the most appropriate consultant or service and arrange the appointment.
This service is available Monday – Friday, between 8am – 5pm.
Email Assistance
Referrals or requests for assistance in selecting the most appropriate consultant or service can also be made, in confidence, by email to info@hje.org.uk
