Information for support people and visitors
Patients should be accompanied by one support person who can provide transport home and assist during initial recovery.
Our waiting area offers comfortable seating and free Wi-Fi. For patient privacy, visitors typically remain in designated waiting areas rather than clinical spaces. Our reception staff can direct visitors to nearby amenities if needed during longer procedures.
