Whilst trying to get the details of both the hospital where I want my spinal surgery and the doctor I want to lead the team that does the surgery I went onto the hospital's website and found, to my surprise, that they actually had a link on the main page saying "refer your patient". After clicking that there is a number for the doctor to call which organises referrals and the like and a couple of other links. Following one enabled me to find the appropriate specialist who had also been recommended to me and his clinic details. The other gives heaps of information for GP's. Tomorrow I'm taking screenshots and preparing to fax it to the doctors surgery addressed to my GP so he can make the phone call and get the process started. One step closer to possibly walking again.
