Referrals

Self referrals

There are a number of services locally that you are able to make self referrals to.

If you are awaiting a referral, you should have had confirmation of your referral from the hospital within 6 weeks. Here are some useful numbers for the different departments:

If it does not fit into the above categories, please email bnssg.IT.ABS@nhs.net to check the referral has been received by the hospital. We will not be able to change the urgency of the referral or book your appointment via this route.

GP referrals

To request a GP referral:

  • Complete our online consultation form. If you need extra help with completing the online form please call the surgery on 0117 909 9912
  • Provide as much information as you can as this will help us to process your request.
