COVID-19 - Important information for patients with imaging appointments (e.g. X-rays, CT, MRI, Ultrasound, Angiography and Fluoroscopy)
Our call centre operatives are receiving a high volume of telephone enquiries as to whether patients should still attend for their appointments. To help us, please do not telephone to check this. You will be contacted directly should your appointment need to be cancelled or postponed. If you are not contacted, you should attend as planned unless you are self-isolating or have symptoms associated with COVID-19 or have any cold or flu like symptoms. Many thanks for your support with this.
