2. ● Regent Street Clinic™ has been providing private GP
services since 1998.
● Our team of private GPs and nurses includes both male
and female clinicians who understand that when it comes
to your health, there are times when you just need to
address your health concern or worry as soon as
possible and without delay.
Background
3. ● Our private GPs offer appointments at a time to suit you,
including on weekends.
● We are open six days per week and will always
accommodate a same-day appointment request, just call
and book.
● We look forward to meeting you and helping you
whatever the medical issue.
5. ● Blood results are typically available the following working
day. Urine results usually take 2-3 working days.
● We allow approximately 2-3 days for result turnaround
for attendees over the weekend who have had blood
and/or urine tests. However, once the results are
received we will give you a call.
Aftercare
6. ● Once you have decided that you would like to see a
private doctor or nurse, you can book online or simply
call our central booking office on 0333 455 9070 and
request an appointment to attend on a day and at a time
to suit you.
● You will be asked for the following information:
● Which clinic you would like to attend – Nottingham or
Sheffield.
● When you would like to attend – day and time.
● The nature of your query.
Booking Your Appointment
7. ● Your name and contact details.
● It is not mandatory for these details to be disclosed if
confidentiality and discretion are an issue. However, it is
preferable to give us correct details whenever possible
with a method of contacting you should the need arise
(usually mobile telephone number or e-mail address).
● Your attendance at our clinic will not be disclosed to any
third party without your consent, including to your NHS
General Practitioner (GP).
8. ● Our clinical team will, however, respectfully discuss the
benefits of sharing any significant findings with your NHS
GP as highlighted in Good Medical Practice and the
recommendations of the General Medical Council
(GMC), however, this will be dependent upon a two-way
discussion and we will always respect each patient’s
view.
9. ● Try and attend around 15 minutes prior to the
appointment time, to allow some time to complete the
new patient health questionnaire and registration forms.
● Our clinics are centrally located with excellent road and
rail links.
● The appointment times may run over due to
emergencies that arise occasionally, so you should allow
enough time for metered parking to accommodate this.
We recommend paying for an hours worth of parking if
using on-street meters.
Attending for your appointment
10. ● Appointment times are not restricted and the doctor will
spend as long as is necessary to take a thorough
medical history and to perform a clinical examination
where necessary. Chaperones will be available for
sensitive examinations and you are welcome to attend
with as many friends or relatives as you wish.
● You can discuss as many medical issues as you feel
necessary that are causing you concern. The doctor will
be fully attentive and will be trying to help identify the
best care pathway to optimise your clinical care.
11. ● We hope and expect that your experience at our clinic
today will be a positive one.
● Regent Street Clinic™ has been at the forefront of
private healthcare provision across the UK for the past
two decades, and in that time we have witnessed, and
been part of, the surge in demand for private medical
services by those wanting a high quality, same day
service – a service not restricted by cost, personnel or
time.
12. ● Our great strength stems from the range and breadth of
medical services that our medical clinicians are able to
cater for, having continued specialist post-graduate
training in a number of different disciplines throughout
their career to optimise the provision of quality care to
cover General Practice, Travel Medicine, Sexual Health,
Medical Aesthetics and Occupational Health.
● Our Care Quality Commission (CQC) registered clinics
currently see around 20,000 patients per annum, placing
us amongst the busiest private medical clinics in the UK.
13. ● The GP consultation fee is £95.
● Additional services such as blood tests and scans will be
supplementary and the costs of these to the laboratory or
local private hospital will be discussed during the
consultation.
● Payment is due at the end of the consultation with the
health professional and on the same day as being seen.
● The costs of any additional tests or investigations will be
discussed fully during the consultation.
Paying for your treatment
14. ● Private health insurance is unlikely to cover the cost of a
private GP consultation in the UK, with the exception of
BUPA International and International SOS, who will pre-
authorise the consultation and any additional tests to a
set value. Please check the policy of your private
insurance provider before making your appointment. As
a rule, Regent Street Clinic™ does not liaise with
insurance providers and our fees are due on the day of
treatment.
15. ● If you do have private health insurance then you will be
expected to claim back the costs of your medical care
having been furnished with an invoiced receipt from us,
itemising the services you have received.
● Payments can be made using cash, debit cards, credit
cards, BACS transfer or PayPal.
● We do not accept personal cheques or American
Express.
● Certain services that we offer are non-refundable and
are available to view in our patient handbooks at each
clinic.
17. ● Imaging results such as X-ray/MRI/CT/Ultrasound can
take up to 5 days as we are dependent upon them being
reported by the consultants at the local private hospitals.
● All results are conveyed to you and discussed with you
by the requesting doctor.
● You are encouraged to have access to your results so
that a shared care management plan can be
implemented.
18. ● The doctor will discuss whether any further follow-up is
necessary and will make arrangements by way of a
further face to face consultation, a telephone
consultation or a referral to a hospital consultant.
● You will be made fully aware of the care pathway
recommended and whether this is going to be best
accessed through the private sector or the NHS route,
dependent upon a number of factors, not least the most
financially acceptable model for each patient.
