Primary care first

When a private GP visit is the right start

New symptoms, or symptoms that will not settle, usually start with a GP visit at 117a Harley Street. You do not need a diagnosis before you arrive. Tell your doctor what has changed or what is concerning you.

Some people dislike doctor appointments, worry about examinations or blood tests, think it will be fine and see no reason to look for a problem, or would rather not know. You can book one visit, say what you need and agree with your GP what examination, testing or referral, if any, is worth doing that day.

Severe or life-threatening symptoms: call 999 or go to A&E. Urgent symptoms that are not life-threatening: contact NHS 111. This clinic is not an emergency service.

A full consultation and continuity of care

When you return and your preferred GP is available, the appointment can pick up from your last consultation and the notes already held at the clinic. Ask reception to book you with the same doctor next time.

General health checks

Routine review, symptom checks and baseline bloods can start in a GP visit. For a structured Health MOT rather than a GP-led review alone, see our Health MOT, with Dr Mohammad Bakhtiar as Clinical Lead for that screening service.

Women's health symptoms

Period pain, contraception and similar concerns can be assessed initially in primary care. For consultant gynaecology, your GP can refer you to our gynaecology service, led by Mr Hikmat Naoum. Some menopause symptoms may also suit our GP menopause service, led by Dr Penelope Sheehan, when that route is clinically appropriate.

Respiratory symptoms

Cough, breathlessness, chest infections and asthma flares can be assessed in clinic. Spirometry is available on site when your GP considers it clinically appropriate, including for some respiratory follow-up.

Skin and rash concerns

Common rashes and skin complaints can be examined here. Your GP may treat them in primary care or refer you to a dermatologist when specialist input is needed.

Digestive symptoms

Abdominal pain, reflux, changed bowel habit and suspected IBS can be looked at in a GP appointment.

Joint and muscle pain

Joint pain, sprains and similar symptoms can be assessed in clinic. Your GP can refer you for imaging, physiotherapy or orthopaedic care if specialist input is needed.

Heart and blood pressure

Your GP can check blood pressure, review cardiovascular risk and arrange an ECG when clinically appropriate. If cardiology referral is needed, your GP can refer you to our cardiology service, where Prof Darrel Francis is Consultant Cardiologist.

Low mood, anxiety and sleep

Low mood, anxiety and sleep problems can be discussed privately with your GP. If specialist psychiatry is needed, your GP can refer you to our psychiatry service, where Dr Ahmed Shoka is Consultant Psychiatrist.

Men's health concerns

Prostate symptoms, erectile problems and hormonal questions can be reviewed by a GP first. If you want dedicated men's health care, see our men's health service, where Dr Mohammad Bakhtiar is Clinical Lead for Health Screening and Men's Health.

Long-term conditions

Diabetes, thyroid disease, hypertension and other ongoing conditions can be assessed initially in GP consultations, with referral when specialist input is needed.

Continuity on Harley Street

Up-to-date tests and a GP you can see again

Medical Express Clinic has cared for patients at 117a Harley Street since 1984. You get in-person consultation, on-site tests when clinically appropriate, and UKAS-accredited laboratory testing, with the option to request the same GP when you return.

Request the same GP again

Tell reception which GP you prefer when you book. When that doctor is available for your next visit, you can continue from your previous consultation and the notes held here. If you need an earlier appointment, another GP at the clinic can see you using those notes. We do not hold records from your NHS GP or other providers unless you bring them or ask us to obtain them.

Examination in clinic

Your GP can listen, examine you, check observations, and decide whether blood tests, ECG, spirometry or referral is appropriate based on what they find.

Blood tests, ECG and spirometry on site

Blood collection, ECG and spirometry are available at 117a Harley Street when clinically appropriate. Laboratory testing is handled through UKAS-accredited providers. X-ray, ultrasound, MRI and CT are arranged off site when your GP considers them necessary.

Referral letters for specialists and imaging

If specialist or imaging care is needed, your GP can prepare a referral to a suitable Harley Street specialist or provider.

Costs explained before you proceed

Your doctor explains what is useful, what can wait and what each option costs. You decide how to proceed.

Common questions

Private GP FAQ

A private GP consultation costs £150. The fee covers clinical assessment and examination when appropriate. If your GP issues a prescription or referral letter during that visit, there is no separate charge for doing so. Follow-up appointments for the same issue are £100 when clinically suitable. You pay the pharmacy separately for any medication dispensed.

Blood tests, scans and other investigations are charged on top of the £150 consultation fee. A referral letter issued during your £150 consultation carries no separate clinic fee. Other medical letters or reports may be charged separately; we explain any letter fee before it is prepared. The £50 prescription-only route is a different pathway: a doctor reviews each request and may require a full consultation.

Walk-ins are accepted seven days a week within the hours below when capacity allows. Booking online or by phone lets you choose an available time rather than rely on walk-in capacity. Monday to Friday: 09:00 to 18:00. Saturday and Sunday: 10:00 to 14:00.

Blood tests, ECG and spirometry can be done at 117a Harley Street when your GP thinks they are needed, either during or after your consultation. X-ray, ultrasound, MRI and CT are referred to partner centres and are not performed on site.

Yes, when clinically appropriate. A referral letter is included in the £150 consultation. Imaging and specialist appointments are booked through partner or receiving services. How quickly you are seen depends on them, not on the GP visit alone.

There is no extra clinic fee for issuing a prescription during a paid £150 GP consultation, provided your GP decides one is clinically needed. Medication from the pharmacy is charged separately. The £50 prescription-only route remains available for repeat requests: a doctor reviews each one and may require a full consultation instead.

Paediatric GP consultations are available for children aged 3 months to 15 years on Monday and Wednesday before 14:00 at £200. The standard £150 pathway on this page is for adult primary care.

We do not routinely share your records with your NHS GP or other providers without your request. There are limited circumstances where we may need to share information, for example where the law requires it or to protect someone from serious harm. We can provide a summary for you to pass on if you wish.

Tell reception which GP you prefer and we will arrange future appointments with that doctor when they are available. If you need to be seen sooner, another doctor can see you using the notes held at the clinic.

No. You can book a private GP consultation directly without a referral. If you later need private specialist care, your GP can provide a referral letter when that is appropriate.

Tell the GP what has changed or what you are concerned about. Your doctor will explain your options and the costs involved before you decide.

Appointments on this page are in person at 117a Harley Street. Your GP can examine you, check observations and arrange on-site tests when needed.
