Specialist outpatient appointments, referrals, check-in and telehealth

Metro South Health outpatient clinics provide specialist medical and surgical services for patients who need specialist review but do not need to stay in hospital. PA Hospital outpatient appointments are usually referral-based.

Micro guide: how a PA Hospital outpatient appointment works

Step What happens Patient action
1. GP or clinician sends referral If your GP thinks you should see a specialist, they send a referral letter to a Metro South hospital. Ask your GP which specialty was requested and whether test results or scans were included.
2. Hospital assesses referral The hospital assesses the referral first. If accepted, you receive a receipt of referral letter. Look for your category number and expected wait time in the referral receipt letter.
3. Appointment is confirmed The outpatient area contacts you by letter or SMS with location, date and time. Keep your phone number, email and postal address up to date.
4. You attend clinic You may have an X-ray or other tests during your appointment. Allow at least 2 hours unless your clinic tells you otherwise.
5. You check out If another appointment is needed, staff can book it before you leave. Check out at reception before going home.
6. Surgery pathway if needed If the doctor thinks you need surgery, you may be placed on the elective surgery wait list. Ask what the next letter will say and who to call if symptoms change.

  • Urgent mental health care.
