Before your appointment

Discuss previous attempts, triggers and suitable behavioural or medication support. Agree practical goals and a follow-up contact plan.

Time, hospital stay & appointments

Times are planning guides, not national averages or guaranteed schedules. They reflect published provider examples and patient guidance. The treating team confirms the individual plan, time needed near the clinic and fitness to travel. Waiting lists are not included.

Procedure or course duration
Support continues across preparation, the quit attempt and relapse prevention.
Hospital stay
The setting depends on the technique: outpatient sessions, day treatment or an admission may be appropriate. Confirm this in the individual protocol.
Visits and repeat attendance
Request the number of treatment sessions, their spacing and the review dates. Preparatory tests and monitoring are additional; there is no universal visit count for this treatment.
Recovery and travel planning
Review cravings, medicine tolerability and setbacks. Continued support can be local or remote according to the service and clinical needs.

Sources & finding a provider
