The information published here is general in nature and is provided for education only. It is not a diagnosis and it is not a substitute for a consultation with a qualified clinician who has examined you.

You should not delay seeking medical advice, disregard advice you have been given, or stop any treatment because of something you have read on this website.

If your symptoms are urgent, contact your GP, call NHS 24 on 111, or in an emergency call 999 or attend your nearest A&E department.

Submitting the enquiry form is a request for an appointment. It does not create a booking and no clinical relationship is formed until an appointment is confirmed by the medical secretary.

Please do not use the enquiry form to send detailed medical information or anything requiring an urgent response.

4. Fees, cancellations and payment

Consultation fees are published on this site and were correct at the date shown. A written quotation is provided for any procedure before it is booked. Imaging and hospital charges are billed separately by the hospital.

If you are unable to attend, please give the secretary as much notice as possible so that the appointment can be offered to another patient. Cancellation terms are confirmed at the time of booking.
