Switching doctors?

i have just been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and i want to be referred from my GP to a endocrinology specialist, how do i do this?

Simply ask your doctor.

Just ask for a referral to a specialist.

Do some research in your area to find out the best specialist and then ask your GP for a referral. Of course, you may be limited due to insurance company willing to pay for which specialists.

Ask you GP! You shouldn't need to switch Dr's, maybe see a different one in your practice,first, if you are not getting the understanding you expect.

Ask your GP for a referral, they should give you one.

doctors wont take a referral unless it's from a gp so u nee to speak to them

the doctor would need to do it for you
