Please note that due to ongoing refurbishment works, our theatres will be out of action between 10th and 20th February. During this period, we will be extremely limited in the referrals we can accept and will be unable to take on any cases that have the potential to require surgical intervention. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate the understanding of our referring practices during this time.
