We now offer evening Private GP
APPOINTMENTS on Tuesdays
evening GP appointment
We encourage all new patients to book a new-patient 30 minute GP appointment so that we can understand your health needs better and get to know you.
We want to ensure all your health concerns are covered and address any preventative medicine that can be initiated: such as checking your blood pressure, discussing nutrition and exercise and general healthy habits.
In some cases the 30 minutes is required to deal with one complex medical issue alone.
If you feel your concern is something that does not require this amount of time then you can book our 20-minute appointment.
Evening telephone GP Appointment
This appointment is useful for repeat visits for patients who we have met before, or for a review of a previous concern.
It’s also perfect for common problems such as a sore throat, acne, a rash, a sexual health concern, a urine infection or something that has just begun recently.
Tuesday evening GP Clinic with Dr Ryan Murray
Evening Video GP Appointment
Similar to the 30 minute private GP appointment this 45 minute appointment provides time for multiple issues.
It is useful for long-standing hip, shoulder or back pain, or generalised joint pains or for mental health concerns such as anxiety and depression.
This appointment gives us time to understand more clearly what the problem might be and to make a clear plan to address it systematically.
