It is with great sadness that we write to inform you that Privategp.com will be closed with effect from the 30th of September 2023.
It has been our privilege to look after you, our PGP “extended family”, which includes over 30,000 patients during our 28-year history.
Our integrative work has been groundbreaking with some truly remarkable and humbling results for which, I believe, we became quite famous.
I would like to thank past and present patients and staff for your tremendous work as an extended team, together with our network of colleagues throughout the UK.
We have worked very hard to try and ensure a smooth transition for your healthcare.
We hope that the information below will be helpful to you.

Your future medical care

It is important that you have access to your NHS GP or other medical service in future should you need prescription-based medications. We are unable to recommend a medical practice but may be able to signpost you to appropriate support via drpiper@privategp.com
If you have special requirements as a past patient please email drpiper@privategp.com. Responses are not guaranteed and will be discretionary.

How we handle your data

We have a legal duty to inform you of the way we are managing your data. Over the past two or three years, our policy has been to send you copies of all your letters, blood results, and notes from your consultations. Therefore, you should have enough information to provide any new GMC-registered medical practitioner.
Past medical records are held securely. Please send any SARS requests to drpiper@privategp.com

PGP still retains the contact data of all patients with an email address. This is with a view to making future contact to advise of any services being provided by PGP going forward. All patients are offered the option of opting out of this and having their contact data removed if they so wish.

Yours in health and happiness.
The PGP Team

Are you struggling with work?

Are you struggling with work? Are you struggling with sleep, finding it difficult to experience pleasure and enjoy life? Do you have mood swings, up and down, with low lows? Would you like to remove these? Could you be suffering from symptoms of depression? Could you be helped from nutritional depression treatment?

Depression can last years. 15% of people with untreated depression end their own lives. Depression is generally distinguished from sadness and milder mood swings by it affecting your life in way that is disabling. For example not being able to function in work, social life or at home. Depression can in summary be very disabilitating, and left unchecked can have a very negative affect on ones life.

If you  or someone you know suffers from depression it may help to be treated for it. There are many treatments for depression. Private General Practice Services in addition to orthodox treatments offer many alternative treatments which can be more effective. Depression is, maybe surprisingly caused by checmical imbalances, and not related as some may think to peoples attitudes or effort. Changing nutrition may for example affect dopamine levels in the brain which can have effects on mood as well as other things. So, having treatment could affect your ability to function normally in work, social life, and other areas including experiencing pleasure.

If you think you or someone you know may benefit from  treatment from depression consider seeing a doctor at www.privategp.com. At the very least having someone to talk to may help. For more information see our depression article at https://privategp.com/depression-article.html. Also see this video below which talks about some of the issues discussed and gives you an idea of whay depression is and who might be affected by it.
