Your understanding matters

It is fundamental that you feel fully involved in your health decisions and it is therefore highly important to us that we provide information which is accessible to everyone.

If you would like any of your letters or any of the patient information or other materials in another language or in large print, please contact us and we will arrange for this. Please also note that we are able to provide interpreting services, both face to face and over the phone, for all appointments if we know in advance.
