Scottish Health Board Fight

Hey,

Has anyone had to fight the Scottish Health Board to get them to fund a trip to England?

My referral has been denied and I need to go through the appeal process to see a NHS doctor in London.

He wrote to my GP saying he wants me down in the next 2/3 months and the Health Board has stopped it.

I'm furious

Hya Stacey , Oh no , that’s awful. On what grounds has your referral been denied? I haven’t heard of anything like this before so not sure what to say sorry . X
