Private GP

27/04/2025 by Dr Marcus Gleave

Finding a GP appointment close to Ascot can be frustrating, with average NHS waiting times now exceeding a week in some areas. For those looking for speed, continuity, and a more personalised service, private GP consultations are transforming access to healthcare. But what is a private GP consultation, and why are so many patients in Ascot choosing this route—even if it means travelling to our Windsor clinic?

Private GP Consultation Explained

At its core, a private GP consultation offers the same level of medical practice you’d expect in the NHS, but with added flexibility, speed, and time. At Mayfield Clinic Ascot, patients can discuss all health concerns with our experienced GPs. These appointments typically last 30 minutes—twice as long as standard NHS GP slots—so you can address everything from niggling symptoms to complex issues, without feeling rushed.

“Our goal at Mayfield Clinic is to provide Ascot residents with comprehensive, unhurried GP consultations—on your schedule, not ours.”

Our private GP philosophy revolves around continuity of care. You’re empowered to book with the same doctor regularly, helping us get to know not just your medical history, but your unique health goals and preferences. Whether you need a detailed health check, ongoing medication, or simply a second opinion, our GPs provide advice, private prescriptions (details here), and fast specialist referrals when required (learn more).
