How to refer - Urogynaecology and General Gynaecology Patients
Dr Gould accepts referrals from both GPs and Specialists. A Specialist referral is only valid for a three month period and should the woman require ongoing care, we will seek a referral from her regular GP after that time.
Dr Gould sees urogynaecology and general gynaecology patients in both the main Malvern rooms and in the Parkville rooms. Invasive testing such as Urodynamics, Cystoscopy, Endo-anal Ultrasound and Ano-rectal manometry are performed at the Parkville site.
Referrals for both Malvern and Parkville can be given to the patient either electronically or in paper form. Alternatively they can be posted, faxed or emailed by you to our main rooms in Malvern.
If referrals have been sent direcly to us, our practice mangager Lily, will then contact your patient and arrange a time for her to be seen. Alteratively, you patient is welcome to call us and arange a time that suits them.
