Emergencies

PLEASE NOTE DR RICHARDSON DOES NOT OFFER EMERGENCY SUPPORT AND CANNOT OFFER A CRISIS SERVICE.

If you are in crisis or have a sudden change in condition, we will want to review you as soon as practicable however this is not possible with the immediacy of an emergency out-of-hours appointment.
