NHS Prescriptions

NHS prescriptions will be sent to the nominated NHS pharmacy of your choice within 30 minutes of completing your consultation. Please add the name and postcode of your chosen pharmacy to your account details when you book your consultation.

Like all NHS prescriptions, unless you are exempt, you will need to pay the standard NHS prescription charge to your chemist.

Certain medication or brands may not be available on the NHS. If this medication is clinically appropriate your clinician will offer a private prescription.

Blood tests, x-rays and scans

We can arrange blood tests, x-rays and scans and other tests on the NHS at a facility or hospital near your home.

Referral to an NHS or private specialist

If your clinician recommends a referral to a specialist, we will arrange an appointment at an NHS hospital of your choice and upload the appointment letter to your documents on the platform.

If you are concerned that you have a symptom of cancer, please ask the clinician you see to arrange an urgent 2 week wait referral. Your symptoms and clinical presentation must meet the criteria set out by NICE in their Suspected Cancer guidelines https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/cg27

If you are covered by health insurance or you want to be seen by a private specialist, please ask the clinician you see to make a private referral.

FAQ's

How does it work when things can’t be done digitally?

Sometimes we may need to see you in person. For example for vaccinations, smear tests or simply to feel or check something physical. If we need to see you in person we’ll ask you to book an in-person appointment by calling or emailing our patient support team.

How long are the appointments?

Like most GPs each appointment slot is scheduled for 10 minutes, however depending on the nature of your condition or symptoms the conversation may be shorter or longer. Our clinicians will use their clinical judgement to assess patients on a case by case basis to determine if you need further advice and care or if your concern can be dealt with during a single slot. You may be encouraged to book an immediate follow up if additional time is needed.

Can I see you face to face?

For some conditions we may request to see you in person at our clinic. You are encouraged to book a telephone appointment in the first instance so that the clinician can decide whether you need to be examined in person, however you may have to wait slightly longer for in-person appointments than you do for digital appointments.

Types of consultations we offer
