[senco-forum] APD testing

"Hi Aly

Does this mean that any GP anywhere in England can refer to GOSH?

Amanda"

Yes anyone anywhere, England and Wales, not sure about Scotland but I  assume 
there too depending on their referral legislation, which I assume is  
doffereent to other areas (could our Scottish friends please confirm?) A GP  cannot 
refuse to refer a patient on for spercialist services and if there are  none in 
their borough and the only one available is in GOSH then that is where  they 
have to go.

I believe you can also get a referral from an audiologist/ENT  department at 
your local hospital.

Best wishes,
Aly
