How to Choose Your Provider
Selecting the right provider is a personal decision. Consider: wait times (most people choose the fastest option), appointment format (online vs in-person), location, what's included after diagnosis, and any specific needs you have. Call or email 2-3 providers to ask questions before committing. Most will discuss your case confidentially and help you decide if they're the right fit. Your GP only needs to write one Right to Choose letter, so take your time choosing the provider that works best for you.
