Your care
Support and advice
We know that it can be an unsettling time when you or those you care about are undergoing medical treatment. But don’t worry: we’re here to help.
Getting started
If you are already registered as a patient at Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, or have a family member or friend who is, then you should find all the information you are looking for here.
Not yet being seen by us?
If you are experiencing non-life threatening health problems for the first time and think that you might need treatment, you need to contact your GP in the first instance. Once you have seen your GP they will be able to refer you to the most appropriate local health service.
If you are not registered with a GP yet or are unsure of your GP’s contact details, please visit www.nhs.uk where you can find contact details for all your local healthcare services.
