Secondary care services are those provided by medical specialists, who in general do not have the first contact with you as the patient. Your GP may refer you to secondary care if you require specialist care, or you may access services in an emergency situation.
Secondary care services are generally provided in hospitals and clinics, rather than at home and in the community. In Leeds, these are:
Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust
Leeds and York Partnership Foundation NHS Trust (mental health and learning disability services)
