Patient journey
What to expect from the visit.
A structured pathway helps keep the consultation understandable from assessment through to follow-up.
01
Pre-assessment
Confirm the reason for the visit, relevant history, medicines, allergies and whether the service is appropriate.

The agreed screening or procedure is completed using the appropriate clinical process.
03
Aftercare

Before your visit
