Do you need to be referred by your GP to a private endocrinologist or can you just phone his office?

Seaside Susie. I have the list thank you. I was hoping someone in my area had seen one of the endocrinologists near to me and would message me.

I just rang the endocrinologist secretary at the NSH hospital he works at and asked for a private appointment which I got within a week.

It all depends who you want to see. The first (and totally useless) one I saw needed a referral from my GP. The one I’m seeing now didn’t.
