Enquiries / Referral for Surgery
How do I get referred for surgery?

For overseas patients who require assistance please contact the Reading shoulder unit direct or drop us an email for further information.

For UK patients: referral to the unit is via your GP to a Consultant is prefered. You will need to visit your GP who will refer you to one of the Shoulder Surgeons at The Reading shoulder unit, passing on any relevant medical history. Your Consultant will then see you as an outpatient to discuss your case. If surgery is required a suitable date can be arranged during your outpatient consultation.
