Do I need a referral?

It depends on where you live and how your care is paid for. Many public systems and some insurance plans require a referral from a primary care clinician before you can see a specialist. Others let you book directly, especially for physiotherapy, optometry, dentistry, mental-health therapy and some dermatology. If you are unsure, call your plan or ask the specialist's office before booking.

Why primary care is still a good first step

A primary care clinician can rule out common causes, order first tests, and send you to the right specialist with the information they need — which often makes the specialist visit faster and more useful.
