A Private GP works much like a regular NHS GP when it comes to the types of services provided. Their main duties both include the identification and management of illnesses, providing health advice and undertaking the process of onward referral to other services. However, the benefits of going private lie in the speed of being seen, longer appointments (if you feel you require more time), the flexibility of appointment times and the receiving of a generally more bespoke service. Beacon Private GP can be used for referral to any other Beacon service, allowing our clinicians to gain a deeper understanding of your needs.
