Not for emergencies. For anything serious or life-threatening — chest pain, breathing difficulty, stroke symptoms or heavy bleeding — call 999 or go to A&E. For urgent advice any time, NHS 111 is available 24/7.

What we help with

Wounds, looked after properly

  • Dressing changes for healing wounds
  • Post-operative wound reviews
  • Removal of stitches (sutures), staples or clips
  • Minor wound cleaning and dressing
  • Blister, graze and minor burn care
  • Advice on wound healing and the signs of infection

How it works

One visit, or a planned course

  1. Book a convenient time — a single visit or a scheduled course.
  2. We assess the wound and change the dressing.
  3. We check for signs of infection and healthy healing.
  4. We advise on aftercare and when to come back.
  5. Onward referral if a wound needs specialist input.

Safety

We watch for infection

If a wound is worsening

Spreading redness, increasing pain, pus or a fever can mean infection; a wound that won’t stop bleeding needs urgent care. We check for these and act promptly, referring or escalating where needed.

Good to know

Safe, joined-up care

Every appointment is with a GMC-registered doctor

You’re seen at our CQC-registered Whitechapel clinic by a GMC-registered doctor. We keep clear, confidential records and, with your consent, send a summary to your NHS GP so your care stays joined up.

You don’t need to be registered with us, and a private appointment doesn’t replace being registered with an NHS GP. A chaperone is available for any examination on request, at no charge. We prescribe responsibly, in line with GMC guidance and antimicrobial stewardship.

What we don’t do here

  • We are not an emergency service. For anything serious or life-threatening — chest pain, difficulty breathing, stroke symptoms, heavy bleeding, a collapse — call 999 or go to A&E. For urgent-but-not-emergency advice, NHS 111 is available 24/7. The Royal London Hospital A&E is about 5 minutes’ walk away.
  • We are an outpatient clinic and do not provide hospital admission or inpatient care.
  • A private GP appointment complements, but does not replace, being registered with an NHS GP.
  • We only issue controlled medication after a proper assessment and appropriate checks — not on demand, and with shared care where relevant.

Being clear about our limits keeps you safe. For emergencies use 999 or A&E; for urgent advice, NHS 111.

Fees

Clear, up-front pricing

Consultation and assessment fees are set out on our price list, and any tests or treatments are explained and priced clearly before you go ahead — no surprises. Some services are priced on enquiry; just ask the clinic team.

Common questions

Can you remove stitches from an operation done elsewhere?

Yes — tell us when and where they were placed and we’ll remove them at the right time.

We check at each visit and advise you on the warning signs to watch for at home.
