To see a psychiatrist, you will usually need a referral from your general practitioner (GP)/ Polyclinic, in the same way you would with any other specialist.Within PGR referrals it will go to the mental health peer support team. Initially, you may be seen by a team member who is not a psychiatrist. If the team member feels that you ought to see a psychiatrist, they’ll arrange an appointment for you with your consent.
