Your outpatient appointment

Your first step will be to see your consultant for an outpatient consultation.
Your GP will be able to help you to choose your consultant.
You will need a referral letter from your GP before seeing your consultant. You can either bring this with you to your appointment, or your GP can send it to us by post or fax prior to your consultation. You can make an outpatient appointment by calling 01223 349349.

How quickly you see your consultant for an outpatient consultation will depend upon the availability of your consultant, but appointments are often available within a week or two. Outpatient appointments are available at a range of times, including evenings and Saturday mornings.

Once you have made your appointment, you will receive a letter of confirmation in the post, our brochure and a map showing how to find us.

When attending your appointment, please report to the Cambridge Heart Clinic main reception. Complimentary refreshments and newspapers / magazines are available in the waiting area. You will see your consultant in one of our consulting rooms. A friend or relative is welcome to accompany you should you wish. A chaperone is available upon request. You may find it useful to bring with you a list of any questions you may have. If your consultant refers you for any tests or investigations, it may be possible to arrange these on the day of your appointment. If not, a further appointment will be made at a time convenient for you.
