Do I need to get my GP to refer me to the National Migraine Centre?

No. We always recommend speaking with your doctor before embarking on a new course of treatment or considering a procedure, but we don’t need to receive a referral.

In fact, the only way to book a consultation or procedure with the National Migraine Centre is for you to complete a booking request here.

You can share information about the National Migraine Centre with your doctor though – our information for health professionals is found here.

If you do have medical insurance and are interested in reclaiming some or all of your costs, your provider may ask for a letter from your GP. You can find out more about the process for claiming against your medical insurance here.
