Refer a patient
We accept referrals from GPs, consultants, physiotherapists and osteopaths. Send us the request and we will arrange the appointment at the centre most convenient for your patient, and return a consultant radiologist report within a short turnaround.
How to refer
- Call the team on 0330 025 2100 to discuss a patient or arrange a scan.
- Email the referral to enquiries@prime-health.co.uk.
- For image transfer, use 03300 250150.
- To see the imaging for a patient you have already referred, use the referrer portal.
Referring into the Prostate Healthcheck
Consultant referrals are accepted without a clinical indication section. For GP referrals, the service is available for patients presenting with any of the following:
- A raised PSA level
- A first degree relative with prostate cancer
- A malignant digital rectal examination
- Ethnicity risk: Black African, Caribbean or Black British
- Increased frequency, or a change of habit, in urination
The pathway covers men aged 40 to 79. It is self-pay and not available through private medical insurance. Send the referral letter with the patient, or ask them to upload it with their online referral. Full pathway detail, including the PSA thresholds that decide biparametric against multiparametric, is on the prostate pathway page.
What your patient gets
A prompt appointment, a scan reported by a consultant radiologist, and a clear report back to you. Where a guided injection, physiotherapy or an onward referral is the right next step, we can arrange that too.
