When I worked in Central London, and needed a Doctor pronto, there's plenty of nearby options to just go private and see someone straight away (Sameday GP, CityDoctor etc) for ~?60.


I now work at home in ED, and while I could of course wait 2 weeks for an appointment and pay nothing, I've been trying to find a similar private GP in this area, and the best google can find for me is surgeries back in the City.


Does anyone know of somewhere around here like this?

Many large corporations have subscriptions with these companies as a free benefit for their employees. In part because it saves them money in lost time for employees taking time off to attend their local doctor.


And it's a tax deductible employee benefit.


In other words, follow the money. There's not enough demand for that service in the suburbs.

I'm Outside of the corp system. I used to be, but no more. There is the private market outside the corp structure. That is what I'm after. I know people get sensitive about the Nhs going private. While I support the nhs, I support my own family's selfish needs more.


Harsh, but true

Then you know fine well that you can contract a private doctor to visit you and charge you circa ?200.


The private doctor surgeries in the City are open 0800-1800.


They don't exist outside of zone 1/Canary Wharf.


I wish you a speedy recovery.

You asked if there was a private GP practice in the area.


There isn't.


Either there is no demand, or you've found a gap in the market.


You seem an intelligent person. My counsel would be to exploit that gap :-)


Note: I haven't been to a doctor in over 20 years. I have little knowledge of the health markets; nor an agenda...

Not private, but according to SELDOC you could try a walk-in centre:

Or find another GP surgery to register with? I can generally get an appointment on the day or within a day or two, and they're very good about fitting in children.

Not sure how you can be so sure there isn't a private GP anywhere in the area then!


There's this private medical centre in Herne Hill...
