How do you get your breast clinic referral please?

I was just wondering how appointments are given after being referred to the breast clinic? 
im only asking as my job means I cannot use my phone whilst at work at all I'm without my phone for up to 9 hours a day and wondered whether it was via phone call or a letter etc. 

 

thanks

  • Hiya , I could be either to be honest , but they do normally leave a message if you fail to answer your phone , you will get a letter regardless though,  hope it all goes well , take care x

  • Mine have either been made by the dr in the surgery at the appointment or by me on the computer using code from the drs appointment. They do confirm by post. 
    l hope you hear soon

  • Hello and thank you for your post,

    You might get a call but they may not leave a message. You may get a letter, especially if they could not contact you. I think the best thing to do is to ring the breast clinic yourself to find out if you have an appointment and explain your situation.

    I hope you hear soon.Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

    Take care,
