Referrals

Making a referral

We accept referrals from GPs and hospital specialists.

Our local catchment area includes Lambeth, Southwark and Lewisham. We also have a large tertiary referral practice for patients from the UK.

GP referrals

All NHS GP referrals must be submitted using the NHS e-Referral Service (e-RS). Referrals sent by email or post from NHS GPs will not be processed.

Please make sure all relevant results are sent with the referral.

Referrals will be reviewed by the team and patients will be triaged to the most appropriate haematology specialist or seen in our general clinic.

Tertiary referrals

Tertiary referrals can be emailed to us or sent by post. Referrals must be addressed to a named consultant.

Referrals from other hospitals must include a completed Inter-Provider Minimum Data Set or make sure that one is sent within 48 hours of referring a patient.

Referral guide

We've produced a referral guide to support GPs. You can access full and summary guides on the haematology resources page of the King's Health Partners website
