If you chose to drive, there is a parking machine on site to pay for the parking, which requires cash.
There are bicycle racks available just to the right of the main reception, if you chose to cycle.

What to bring
When you arrive at the hospital, please enter the building via the main entrance and introduce yourself to our receptionist. You will then be booked into your appointment and directed to the waiting room or directly to the consulting room.
If you have the appointment letter, it would be helpful to bring this with you to help with booking in.
