Before your appointment

Every year you'll need:

  • an MRI scan of the brain
  • hearing tests
  • a neurological examination

Every 3 years you'll need an MRI scan of the spine.

At your annual review we need information from your recent scans, tests and other appointments so that we can discuss your needs with you.

Please arrange and go to these other appointments before your review.

Please make sure you:

  • arrange to have your MRI scans at least 4 weeks before your appointment. You'll get a message or call from our MRI service to arrange your scans
  • attend your hearing (audiology) appointments
  • attend your other clinic appointments, or let us know at least 4 weeks in advance if you need to change them
  • arrange patient transport through your GP or contact our patient transport service at least 5 days before your appointment, if you need it

During your appointment

At your yearly review we'll:

  • discuss your test results with you
  • discuss your treatment, including treatment of vestibular schwannomas or meningiomas 
  • give you advice about your symptoms
  • arrange any tests and investigations you need
