Private Services Attracting a Fee

Not all the Medical Examinations, reports and certificates done by your GP are free under the NHS.

If you GP Surgery is busy they may have to refuse to perform the private medical you are requesting.

If you are unsure whether a service attracts a fee please phone for details beforehand – this will prevent any unpleasant argument about payment of the fee required, which is usually paid in advance.

Ask the practice a question using our online form for all your queries on private fees.
