Usually you go through your GP to get a referral privately, but I think some members have phoned directly, and looking at the websites you can book an appt online. Both Mr Hughes & Mr Axon are with Spire health, I think Mr Hughes is with other organisations. If you go through your GP they should be able to send your CT results to them.
@PatientD gives info about Mr Hughes in this discussion:
Surgery with Mr Hughes London this Friday - General - Living with Eagle
There seems to be differing accounts of whether you can then go on the NHS list after you’ve had a private consultation- one member was told that everything had to then be done privately, but one of our other members was put through the NHS by Mr Axon- however, the team who decide whether surgeries are justified or not then refused her the surgery!
A good idea to stay on the TORS list for now, & see later what happens.
Head and neck surgeons might not be familiar with ES but should be used to operating where the styloids are otherwise, perhaps you could have a search locally ?
