Referral information

Your healthcare provider sends a referral to the clinic. 

A doctor looks at each referral and decides how quickly you need to be seen. For example, if you have cancer you may be seen within 1 or 2 weeks. Less urgent problems wait longer. You will be sent a letter and a text message when an appointment has been scheduled.
