Hi I am wondering if anyone can tell me how long it takes for a specialist to contact you, once your info has been sent to them.

Are you meaning a private endocrinologist or an NHS one?NHS you may not have any contact if they do not think that your results merit their input. Hypothyroidism is generally regarded as a problem to be dealt with at gp level. Endocrinologists can refuse referrals.

If private then you should hear right away with confirmation of your appointment.
