Before you get in touch, it is a good idea to speak to your GP about your chronic pain. They will be able to give you expert advice about whether you would benefit from a consultation from a chronic pain specialist.
It is preferable, but not essential to have a referral either from your own GP or a specialist. However, this tends to make the consultation smoother and reduces the possibility of presenting with a condition that I can’t help you with.
Please bring all medications and relevant clinical letters with you for your appointment.
