Referrals

We no longer accept referrals by post.

How to submit a referral

e-RS referrals

All NHS GP referrals must be submitted using the NHS e-Referral Service (e-RS). Referrals sent by email or post from NHS GPs will not be processed.

Non-e-RS referrals

In line with NHS England's Digital First approach, we encourage all external non-e-RS referrals to be submitted digitally.

Digital referrals help reduce delays, improve traceability, minimise the risk of lost or incomplete information, and support safer patient care.

Please submit referrals by email to [email protected].

We will continue to accept paper referrals where necessary. However, referrers will be advised to use digital referral methods in future.

Dentist referrals

Please complete the south east London referral form.

Hospital (tertiary) referrals

Please email [email protected].

Salivary gland service

For referrals to the salivary gland service, please read our salivary gland referral information.
