I think you might have to be re referred ring the PALS sevice and get advice before doing anything else Sue x

The best person to ask may be the practice manager at the surgery you want to move to . Just give them a ring and say you're thinking of registering with them and would you need to be re-referred.

hi before you make any choices please make an appointment to see the practice manager .. he/she will be able to tell you more about the appointment systems and treatment
