What to expect from your appointment

Whether you have a virtual appointment via telephone or video, or if you are coming to the hospital for a face to face appointment, you will be sent a letter letting you know what the date and time of the appointment is. You will also be sent a text message reminder about your appointment if we have your correct mobile phone number on file.

If you are coming to the hospital for your face to face appointment please take note of the date and time of your appointment and which hospital site you are due to attend.
