GP referrals

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello, I have been to the hospital and seen by a doctor,, he told me he can't refer me to an MRI scan because my GP need to do that, does he mean I have to book an appointment with any doctor in my GP surgery? or does it have to be a specific doctor that i have to speak with to refer me?

thanks

    Any GP can refer for an MRI scan but they will probably ask you for more details as to why you need one.
