Your Rights

Choosing a Consultant

If you feel the need to consider other options for care for your child, you have a legal right to do this.  The NHS Choices website provides information on your right to choose a consultant to provide your care / your child’s care – as well as information on how to obtain a second opinion.

You’ll find the page on Choosing a Consultant here.
