No GP referral needed

Before you book
If you have a sudden severe problem, signs of serious infection or feel acutely unwell, use the appropriate NHS urgent or emergency service rather than waiting for a routine appointment.
A hot, swollen knee with fever, or being unable to bear weight after an injury, needs urgent medical help. Call NHS 111, or 999 in an emergency.
