Outpatient appointments
Many children and young people never need to stay at GOSH – they come for outpatient appointments with our specialist teams and then go home again afterwards.
Here’s what to expect when you bring your child for an outpatient appointment.
The Outpatient Department is open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 6.30pm. We do our best to keep clinics running to time but sometimes we can overrun if a doctor needs longer to explain a condition or treatment to another family. We will let you know if your child’s appointment is running late.
We have several outpatient clinic areas at GOSH – your appointment letter will tell you where your child’s clinic is being held and what time you are expected.
In the main hospital building:
In the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine (RLHIM) just up the street from the main hospital building:
In the Zayed Centre for Research at 20 Guilford Street, around the corner from the main hospital building:
