GP care for tourists, visitors and London residents
What can our GPs help with?
A GP is a doctor who assesses and treats a wide range of everyday health problems. Book a one-off appointment for the concerns below, or to discuss an existing condition or treatment question.
- Feeling unwell away from home
See a GP for assessment, advice and treatment for common problems such as coughs, sore throats, earache, stomach upsets, urinary symptoms, allergies and skin concerns.
- Run out of your regular medicine?
A GP can assess an urgent repeat prescription request while you are travelling. Bring the original packaging, your prescription or a medication list. Prescribing depends on clinical assessment and UK prescribing rules.
- Does your child need a doctor?
Our GPs also see children. Book an appointment for advice and assessment when your child is unwell. Check the family booking information below for the identification and consent documents to bring.
- Medical certificates, sick notes and referrals
See a GP for medical certificates, sick notes, specialist referrals or a fit-to-fly assessment. Bring any requirements from your employer, airline or insurer. Your GP will assess your needs and provide appropriate documentation; fit-to-fly assessments require a clinic appointment.
- Sexual and women’s health
Speak confidentially with a GP about sexual-health concerns, contraception or women’s health. Your GP can advise on appropriate tests and treatment, including STI testing where needed.
- Mental health and wellbeing
Talk to a GP about anxiety, stress or low mood. Your GP can assess your concerns, discuss treatment options and arrange referrals where appropriate.

Tests and treatment, often in one visit
Get answers sooner and spend less time making extra journeys. Our lab-equipped clinics offer rapid tests, and selected medicines can be supplied at your appointment.
Blood tests and STI testing
Faster answers with on-site tests
Your GP can arrange blood tests and STI testing where appropriate. At clinics with on-site labs, many common test results are available in around 20 minutes and can help guide treatment during the same visit. Other tests take longer. Look for the on-site lab badge below and check availability and result times for the test you need.
Treatment after your consultation
Medication available at the clinic
Some prescribed medicines can be supplied at your appointment, saving a separate trip to a pharmacy. Your GP will explain the treatment they recommend. Supply depends on the medicine and stock at your clinic, and medication is charged separately.

Arriving by plane?
Thameslink trains from Gatwick call at London Bridge, near our London Bridge clinic. The Elizabeth line runs from Heathrow to Bond Street, near our Bond Street clinic.
Health cover
Insured in Spain. Your European Health Insurance Card (Tarjeta Sanitaria Europea) covers necessary NHS care during a temporary stay, not private care, so plan to pay DocTap yourself. Spain's Foreign Ministry also advises travel insurance.
Visiting from Latin America. The UK has no healthcare agreement with any Latin American country, and visitors are usually charged for NHS hospital treatment, so travel insurance matters.
Living in the UK. You can register with an NHS GP free; DocTap is a private, pay-per-appointment option. Workplace or private medical insurance may cover it.
Keep your invoice (download it from your DocTap account), proof of payment and prescriptions. Your insurer decides, and reimbursement is not guaranteed.
Read the Spanish government's guidance on the European Health Insurance Card (in Spanish) for the current requirements.
Before you book
Questions about seeing a GP in London
Practical information for Spanish-speaking visitors and residents, from booking your appointment to getting tests or medication.
- Can I book without a UK GP or NHS number?
Yes. Visitors and London residents can book directly without joining an NHS GP practice or changing their usual doctor. An NHS number is not requested in the booking form. Use an email address you can access and a telephone number with its country code; international numbers are supported. If you are visiting, use your hotel or other UK accommodation address, including its postcode. You will still need to provide personal details and relevant medical history. Contact patient support if you need help entering your details.
- Can I walk in, or do I need to book?
Please book an available appointment online before coming to the clinic. You can book a one-off visit without changing your usual doctor or taking out a membership. Same-day appointments are subject to availability; choose your clinic and time before travelling.
- Do you offer evening, weekend or out-of-hours GP appointments?
Yes. DocTap offers evening and weekend GP appointments, with times varying by clinic and day. Check live availability and book before travelling. You can use us for a one-off appointment without joining a GP practice. We do not offer overnight appointments. Weekend consultation prices are shown in the table above.
- Will I see a Spanish-speaking doctor?
Your appointment is with an English-speaking GP. Free live AI translation is available if you prefer to speak Spanish. You are welcome to consult in English. For translation, choose a 25-minute clinic appointment or a 15-minute video appointment. Let your GP know if anything is unclear so you can check it together.
- What is included in the appointment price?
Your fee covers the GP consultation, including prescriptions and standard medical letters issued during the appointment when clinically appropriate. AI translation is free. Medicines, tests and scans are charged separately, and insurer forms have an additional fee. Your GP will explain recommended services and their costs before you decide. Prescriptions or letters requested outside an appointment may incur a charge.
- Can I book for my child?
For children under 16, bring the child’s passport or birth certificate and the accompanying adult’s ID. If the adult is not the parent or legal guardian, bring a signed permission letter from the parent or guardian. Contact patient support before booking if you need help choosing the appointment or meeting these requirements.
- What should I bring to my appointment?
Bring ID and details of your symptoms, allergies and medical conditions, plus any relevant reports. For a medication request, bring the original packaging or a clear prescription showing the medicine, strength and dose. Tell the GP if you are pregnant, may be pregnant, or are leaving the UK soon. If you are bringing a child, check the identification and consent requirements in the family booking answer.
- Can you replace medicine I have run out of while travelling?
A GP can assess an urgent repeat prescription request. Bring your medicine packaging, an existing prescription or a medication list, including the strength and dose. A prescription is not guaranteed: the GP must decide that it is appropriate and safe under UK prescribing rules. Some medicines may need further information, monitoring or specialist care.
- Can I use a prescription from my home country?
Some overseas prescriptions can be dispensed by a UK pharmacy, depending on the country of issue, the medicine and the prescription details. A pharmacist can check whether yours can be accepted; restrictions apply to some medicines. If you need a new prescription, a DocTap GP can assess your request. Prescribing is subject to clinical assessment and is not guaranteed.
- Can I use travel insurance or a European health card?
Pay for your appointment upfront, then submit your own claim to your travel or medical insurer. You can download an invoice from your DocTap account. Check cover, prior authorisation and required documents with your insurer before booking; reimbursement is not guaranteed. Insurer forms have an additional fee. DocTap provides private care, which is not covered by an EHIC. Eligible visitors may use a valid EHIC for medically necessary NHS care during a temporary stay.
- Can I have tests and receive results after leaving London?
Tell your GP your departure date before testing, so you can discuss result times, outstanding results and any further care. You can still access your notes through your DocTap account after leaving the UK. We cannot provide a consultation while you are outside the UK, so agree how any further medical care will be arranged before you leave. Keep your contact details up to date.
- Is DocTap an emergency service?
DocTap is a GP service, not an emergency department. For a life-threatening emergency, call 999 or go to A&E. If you need urgent medical help and are unsure what to do, call NHS 111. You can ask for an interpreter when you call.
