GP Referral is a solution to refer patients to GPs with Special Interests who can perform a procedure in the community setting of a GP Practice. Out Patient referrals for a first appointment or for a procedure can take many months. Patients can be managed faster in the community setting by a Special Interest GP. This system allows you to search for GPs in your region who are happy to receive requests for referrals from patients and GPs and who can see and treat you in a short time frame.
GPs can register on gpreferral.ie, search the GP Special Interest list and request referrals for procedures including community surgery, biopsy, joint injections, mirenas and more with GPs with special interests who are trained and experienced in managing such patients. Referral requests made by local colleagues result in patients receiving a prompt appointment for their patient from a GP who is trained, experienced and accredited to deliver that specialist care.
Patients can now directly request a referral from a Special Interest GP by registering on gpreferral.ie. Patients can then search for a procedure or a GP within a preferred region and request a call-back from the GP to arrange an appointment. This simple system puts the control of your health back into your hands, allowing you to choose the time and place of your procedure.
Participants on the GP Referral System include members of the Primary Care Surgical Association (PCSA), Primary Care Dermatology Society of Ireland (PCDSI), Irish Association of Dermatologists (IAD), Family Planning Association of Ireland (FPAI) and many others. These GPs are family practitioners working in the community who are also trained in particular specialties such as dermatology, family planning, pain management and minor surgery.
When patients require a consultation or treatment with a specialist, gpreferral.ie is the fast-growing solution. That is why many GPs with special interests are now registering and actively receiving patient referrals from their medical colleagues on this easy to use system. Between them they are shaping a better healthcare future where GPs use their specialist training and expertise to provide an enhanced local surgery service for patients throughout the country. Registration to make and receive patient referrals is easy, so why not start today and join the growing number of medical professionals who are enabling their patients to receive high quality specialist treatment in the primary care community.
