Finding the right psychiatric support

Do I need a GP referral to see a private psychiatrist?
Most appointments at Orchard Clinic can be arranged directly. Your GP may also recommend specialist support. Contact your chosen psychiatrist before booking to check their referral requirements and discuss any relevant medical information.
