Something may have been on your mind for weeks. You can see a GP in person at 117a Harley Street. Consultations are £150, with no fixed time limit, 7 days a week.
For £150, you see a GP in person at 117a Harley Street, with no fixed time limit, 7 days a week. Your doctor takes your history, examines you where needed, and agrees a plan with you. A prescription or referral letter issued during that visit carries no separate clinic fee.
Blood tests, scans, medicines and some letters may cost extra. We explain charges before anything goes ahead. Follow-up appointments for the same issue are £100 when clinically suitable. A separate £50 prescription-only route exists for eligible repeat requests.
Eligible repeat requests
£50
For repeat medication requests without a full GP consultation. A doctor reviews each request and may approve it, decline it, or ask you to attend for a full £150 consultation instead. Pharmacy medication charges are separate.
Check this routeTests, imaging and medication are not included in these fees. We explain clinic charges before you proceed.
Most people come because they want time with a doctor who will listen, examine them if needed, and help move the problem forward. You do not need a diagnosis or a complete history before you arrive. The visit is in person on Harley Street, and there is no fixed clock while you explain what has changed.
This is a working GP practice, not a remote advice line. You sit with a doctor who can examine you, and if a blood test, ECG or breathing test would change the plan that day, those can often be arranged in the same building.
If a problem will not settle, a medicine question needs a doctor, or you simply want someone experienced to look at you, this is the right first visit, even when it is not yet clear which specialty the problem belongs to.
If you want a structured screening package rather than a symptom-led visit, use the Health MOT. Children aged 3 months to 15 years use the paediatric GP clinics on Monday and Wednesday before 14:00, at £200.
Letters, medicine names and previous results, even if they feel incomplete, help the doctor spend the time on the problem rather than reconstructing the history.
Book online to guarantee your slot, call 0207 499 1991, or walk in during opening hours when there is capacity. Booking is free and registration is not required. Details of medicines, allergies and any letters or results you already have are useful to bring.
Your GP takes your history and examines you where needed. Blood collection, ECG or spirometry can be done at 117a Harley Street if they would change the plan that day.
Your doctor explains the agreed next step before you leave. That may be a prescription, further tests, a referral or a review once results are back. If you agree, the clinic can arrange tests or a referral, and explains any extra clinic charge first.
People often worry about extra charges appearing after they sit down. If a test, scan or letter would cost more than the consultation, we explain that before it goes ahead. A prescription or referral letter written during the £150 visit does not add a separate clinic fee.
Many people want the same doctor next time, and we will arrange that when we can. If you need to be seen sooner, another GP here can continue from the notes already held at the clinic.
Medical Express Clinic is a private GP practice, not an emergency department. Severe or life-threatening illness belongs in emergency care rather than waiting here for something we cannot treat.
For most new symptoms, start with a £150 GP consultation. These related pages explain narrower routes and age-specific care.
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.
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.
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 and Dr Penelope Sheehan as clinical leads for that screening service.
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.
Tell us which country, employer or form the medical is for. Reception can direct you to our visa and occupational health service.
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.
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.
Abdominal pain, reflux, changed bowel habit and suspected IBS can be looked at in a GP appointment.
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.
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 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.
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.
Diabetes, thyroid disease, hypertension and other ongoing conditions can be assessed initially in GP consultations, with referral when specialist input is needed.

A private GP consultation at Medical Express Clinic 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 clinic charge for doing so. Follow-up appointments for the same issue are £100 when clinically suitable. Use that route when a doctor has asked you to return or you need a comprehensive review of the same issue. Picking up a prescription or just popping in for a few minutes will not be charged as a follow-up consultation, but a new or unrelated concern may need a full £150 consultation. 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; the clinic explains any letter fee before it is prepared. The £50 prescription-only route is a different option: a doctor reviews each request and may require a full consultation.
Appointments are available 7 days a week, including bank holidays, either booked or as a walk-in. Walk-ins are accepted within the hours below when capacity allows. Booking online guarantees a listed slot and usually shortens the wait. Booking is free, registration is not required, and the availability listed on the website is live. Monday to Friday: 09:00 to 18:00. Saturday and Sunday: 10:00 to 14:00.
Same-day appointments are often available, but they are not guaranteed and depend on capacity. Book online to guarantee a listed slot, or call 0207 499 1991 to see what times remain.
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.
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 £150 consultation is for adult primary care.

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.
Reception can note which GP you prefer, and later appointments are arranged 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.
