Once your referral has been received and checked by our team, we will then contact you either by phone or letter with the date of your scan.
It is really important that you attend your scan at the correct time, as the images from the scan will support your diagnosis and any further treatment. It also ensures that our team are not left with gaps in their workload as patients haven’t attended – which is a significant cost to the hospital. If you are unable to attend the date provided, please contact our team on NETCALL NUMBER.
Walk in service
While a confirmed appointment time is required for the majority of our scans, patients can generally attend for x-rays on a walk in basis, this includes:
Where you have been referred from a doctor for an x-ray
When you meet the self-referral criteria for a chest x-ray, based on symptoms, age and length of time symptoms have been present (more detail around our Self-referral Chest x-ray service can be found here)
Contact us:
For any appointment changes please contact us on NETCALL NUMBER. If you do need to change your appointment, please contact us at the earliest possible time from receiving your appointment, as this allows us to offer the slot to another patient – ensuring no capacity is wasted and our patients waits are kept to a minimum.
NB. Add in web chat link – when the function is enabled.
