I went to the doctor got a letter for an ultrasound - usual 50€ fee - I called and the ultrasound was okay he said he would like to see should I require a biopsy further investigation. for such a follow up would there be fee charged
 
Presumably as its necessary to have the biopsy in a hospital you may just need a letter of referral. Best to ring the secretary and see if you can avoid another appointment.
 
I think that if he has seen you recently, then there shouldn't really be a need to have a further appointment. As Sue Ellen stated, best to ring secretary and check.
 
This was never clearly defined what the charges are for, I was charged a 2nd time from a consultant just to tell me everything was clear, I was no more than 2 minutes with him + I had to take time off work

That has happened me also.

In general, ( with very few exceptions), you can assume that if you walk in the door of a doctors surgery,you will be charged the consultation fee.
That is why you should try toavoid it, if the business can be conducted by phone, like checking test results or getting a referral letter.
