Consultations
Private GP Consultations, Private Doctor Consultation and Nurse Consultations are available for you to discuss any of your medical worries or problems, either for yourself, your family or your work colleagues.
We aim to provide an integrated health service using the very best in traditional medicine coupled with alternative treatments and the latest tests to help you understand your body and what might help you to live a long, healthy, happy and fulfilling life.
We are able to take as much time with you as you need to get to the root of the problem and seek to find solutions which are right for you, your family or your business.
We also work with a number of consultants, therapists and clinical dieticians, both in house and externally. Referrals can also be made to external consultants both locally, in London, and elsewhere, as appropriate. Our aim is always to refer you to a consultant, therapist or clinical dietician with a reputation for providing the very best in patient care.
Private GP Consultations
Private GP consultations and private Doctor Consultations may be booked for 15mins, 30mins, 45mins or 1 hr appointments. We usually recommend a 45min first appointment as the doctor will want to cover your medical history with you and allow enough time to discuss your current issues.
Appointments are usually available within 48hrs. If urgent you can usually be soon on the same day. If however the doctor is away you may choose to book an appointment with one of our Practice Nurses. Telephone consultations are also available (but not usually for first appointments).
Fees are as per the ‘Fees' section of this website. Blood tests, urine tests or any other tests or services are charged in addition to the Doctor consultation fee.
All private patients are required to pay their fees in cash or by credit card prior to leaving the surgery. Companies may pay on submission of our invoice subject to prior agreement.
Consultations are available for any of the services listed under the ‘Our Services' section of this website but may include general, specific or chronic health problems, health checks, occupational health services, cosmetic treatments, nutritional advice and testing, as well as mental health & wellbeing.

Nutrition & Diet
Good nutrition and diet are vital in the fight to help keep our bodies fit and healthy. What we are is what we eat, so knowing what to eat and what not to eat are essential to a healthy lifestyle. Many of us however lack a healthy diet, are deficient in vitamins and minerals, and have allergies which we may know nothing about! Fortunately we are now able to test for food allergies, mineral deficiencies and Omega imbalances. This helps us to devise with you a diet suitable for your body and to provide you with vitamin, mineral and omega supplements, thus giving you the best chance of staying fit and healthy!
We can help with:
• Food Allergy testing
• Homocysteine level testing
• Losing Weight
• Mental Health
