How much does a private GP cost?

Private GP consultations at our Whitechapel clinic are £140 in person, or £70 by phone — both with an experienced, GMC-registered doctor. Transparent pricing and no hidden costs; full pricing for every service — including blood tests, ultrasound, ADHD assessments and specialist consultations — is listed on our fees page.

Do I need a GP referral?

No referral needed for most appointments — you can book directly with a private GP, ultrasound, blood tests or many of our specialist services. A small number of consultant clinics prefer a referral letter, which our GPs can issue same-day if needed.

How quickly can I be seen?

Most private GP appointments are available the same day, including evenings and weekends. We're open 7 days a week 9am–7pm at our Whitechapel clinic, serving patients across East London, the City of London, Aldgate and Liverpool Street.

Do you accept private medical insurance?

Many appointments are self-pay with an itemised invoice you can submit to Bupa, AXA, Vitality, Aviva or Cigna for reimbursement where applicable. Please contact our reception team to confirm your specific insurance arrangement before booking.

Editorial & content-review policy

How we write, review and keep our health information accurate, balanced and useful — and who is responsible for it.

The information on this website is written to help you understand your health and make informed decisions. We take its accuracy seriously. This page explains how our content is produced, who reviews it, how often it is checked, and the sources we rely on.

Who reviews our content

Dr Haydar Bolat — Clinical Director & GPGMC reference 7138332. Our clinical content is reviewed under the oversight of Dr Bolat, a GMC-registered doctor, working with the relevant clinicians across the hospital. You can read more about Dr Bolat.

Individual services are delivered by the appropriate specialist — for example women’s health, urology or mental health — and clinical pages are checked with input from the clinicians who provide those services. Naming a responsible reviewer is our commitment that a qualified doctor stands behind the information you read here.

How we create our content

Content is written in plain, patient-friendly language, and checked for clinical accuracy before publication.
We aim to explain what a test, treatment or service can and cannot do, rather than overstate benefits.
We avoid promotional language and do not use claims such as “best”, “guaranteed” or “100% accurate”.
Where a test supports — rather than confirms — a diagnosis, we say so clearly.
We signpost urgent and emergency care where it matters, and we are clear that our information does not replace a personal consultation.

Our review schedule

Clinical pages carry a “last reviewed” and “next review due” date. As a standard, content is reviewed at least every 12 months, and sooner when national guidance, evidence or our services change. If you spot something that looks out of date or incorrect, please tell us (see below) and we will check it.

The sources we rely on

Our health information is guided by recognised, authoritative sources, including:

The NHS and NHS clinical guidance
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE)
Relevant medical royal colleges and specialist societies (for example the British Society for Sexual Medicine for testosterone guidance)
The General Medical Council (GMC) and, for medicines, the MHRA
Peer-reviewed clinical literature, applied with clinical judgement

Where a page relates to an external process — such as a visa medical — we defer to the issuing authority, and we do not invent or guarantee third-party requirements.

Accuracy, independence and advertising

Our clinical content is written to inform, not to sell. Editorial decisions about health information are made on clinical grounds and are not influenced by advertisers or third parties. Prices and service details are kept up to date, and we confirm any price with you before a test, procedure or report is carried out.

Regulation

Tower Bridge Hospital London is registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and care is delivered by GMC-registered doctors. More detail is on our about us page.

Tell us about a content issue

If you believe any information on this site is inaccurate, unclear or out of date, we want to know. Please contact us via our contact page or by phone, and reference the page concerned. We review all feedback about clinical content.
