Getting to appointments at Guy’s Hospital

We’re having issues with some of the lifts in Tower Wing at Guy’s Hospital.

If your appointment is in Tower Wing, please allow an extra 15 minutes to get there, as you may need to queue for a lift.

During your appointment

You'll see a member of our team. First appointments usually last around 15 minutes. We may carry out investigations such as a urine flow test and a physical examination.

Follow-up appointments usually last around 15 minutes and may be face-to face or by phone.

We are a teaching hospital. Medical students may be present observing. Please let us know if you prefer students not to be present at your appointment. This will not affect your care.

After your appointment

We'll write to the doctor who referred you and send a copy of the letter to you and your GP.

If needed, we'll put in place a treatment plan for you. We'll arrange a follow-up appointment if needed.
