We can only accept consultants within the OUH or GP referrals from the musculoskeletal hub.
A strict appointment system operates, and referrals are prioritised on clinical need, based on the information supplied by the referring medical practitioner.
When referring a patient please ensure that your letters include the following information.
- Full GP practice details
- Patient data including the patient's name, date of birth and telephone number
- Patient's NHS number
- All relevant clinical information and indication of urgency
- Information on any relevant pathology and/or results of radiology investigations
- Whether the patient needs transport on medical grounds
- Whether the patient needs an interpreter
Referrals can be sent to our secure email address: noc.physio@nhs.net
