If you are waiting for a hospital appointment, unfortunately your GP practice cannot speed this up. If your condition is worsening, please discuss this with your specialist so they can decide if you need to be seen sooner.
You can also contact the hospital’s Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS).
