Information for Oncology Consultants
At Sims IVF, we want to make the process as easy as possible for oncology patients as we understand it is a challenging time for them. We have worked with oncology consultants throughout the years and hope the following points help you when referring a patient.
How do I refer a patient for cryopreservation under the oncology programme?
All referral forms (available below) must be emailed to the clinic that the patient wishes to attend - please see contact details and forms below.
Please forward EU viral screening bloods to the NVRL (National Viral Reference Laboratory.) for processing. Please ensure you authorise NVRL to forward the results directly to SIMS IVF to avoid any delays. (Only the hospital that draw the bloods can instruct the NVRL on sending results to our clinic or request any information on the same)
