London Private GP Guide

Private GP Prices in London Compared

When you need a GP, you want to know what an appointment will cost and what that price includes. This London guide brings together fees, services and booking terms from eight providers to help you find an option that suits your needs.

Understanding Your Options

About This Comparison

The starting price is only part of the cost. Appointment length, follow-up fees, test charges and cancellation terms vary between London providers and can change what you end up paying.

We compared eight providers offering self-pay, in-clinic GP appointments. Each card shows the lowest standard weekday price, what it includes and the booking terms. Sources and the date we checked them are under "More prices & details".

"Not published" means we could not find that detail on the provider's website. It does not mean the service is unavailable or costs extra.

This is a comparison of prices and services, not a ranking of clinical quality.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a private GP appointment cost in London?

DocTap appointments start from £55 online or £75 in clinic. The final price depends on the appointment type, length, format and whether it is on a weekday, weekend or bank holiday. Prescriptions and medical letters are included in the appointment price.

What is included in a private GP consultation fee?

A DocTap private GP appointment gives you time with a fully GMC-registered doctor to discuss your symptoms, medical history or health concern. Your GP can assess you, advise on next steps and, where clinically appropriate, arrange prescriptions, referrals, medical letters, sick notes, blood tests, scans or follow-up care.

Do I need health insurance or a membership to see a private GP?

No. You can book and pay for a private GP appointment directly without health insurance or a membership. DocTap Pass is optional and provides a discount on eligible appointments and tests; it is not required to use DocTap. Check current appointment prices before booking at https://doctap.co.uk/prices.

Will I pay separately for a private prescription and the medicine?

There is no additional charge for issuing a prescription. Medications dispensed in clinic are charged per item which is usually no more than the NHS prescription charge.

Are private GP follow-up appointments included in the price?

Follow-up appointments are not automatically included in the original consultation price unless the booking information specifically says otherwise. If the GP recommends another consultation, it is booked and charged separately at the price shown for that appointment type. Tests, scans and medicines may also carry separate charges; check the current prices before booking.

Are private GP appointments more expensive at weekends?

Often, but not always. DocTap charges £75 for a 15-minute weekday clinic appointment and £85 at weekends and on bank holidays. London Doctors Clinic lists £89 on weekdays and evenings and £105 at weekends and on bank holidays. Check the selected clinic and appointment time before booking; out-of-hours access and fees vary by provider.

Are video GP appointments cheaper than clinic appointments?

They can be, but compare the appointment length and any extra charges. For example, Dr.Dropin lists video appointments at £69 and 15-minute clinic appointments at £89. Some concerns need an in-person examination or test, so the lowest-priced format may not be suitable. Check the current booking price and what is included.

How can I tell if a private GP is good?

Yes, all of our doctors are UK-trained, experienced General Practitioners who are fully registered with the General Medical Council (GMC). We only partner with doctors we trust to provide the highest standard of care.

How this comparison works

DocTap standard starting prices use the normal weekday tariff for the linked service, including its appointment length and included tests. Weekend and bank-holiday tariffs are shown in the price details. Individual slot offers and last-minute discounts are excluded. Prices may change and appointments are subject to availability. Membership is purchased separately.

Starting prices and appointment lengths can differ between providers. Additional services may cost extra. An unpublished price does not mean a service is unavailable.

Before You Book

What Matters Beyond Price?

Once you have a shortlist, check who will treat you and how the service is run. Everything below is public and free to check for any provider.

CQC: How the Service Is RegulatedPrivate GP services in England must be registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Search for the provider on the CQC website to see its rating and latest inspection report. The report tells you more than the rating alone: what inspectors looked at, when, and what needed to improve.
GMC: Getting to Know Your DoctorEvery doctor practising in the UK must be registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) and hold a licence to practise. Ask for your doctor's name or GMC number and check it on the GMC register. Many providers also publish profiles showing each doctor's experience and clinical interests.
Patient Feedback and PerformanceReviews show whether patients felt listened to, whether things were explained clearly and whether appointments ran on time. Read recent reviews on more than one independent site, and look at how the provider responds to complaints. Some providers also publish waiting times and how quickly results come back.
The Details That Make Care EasierGood care often comes down to the details: seeing a GP you choose, being understood in your own language, and knowing someone is keeping track of your results and follow-up. Ask any provider what support you get before, during and after your appointment. At DocTap, that includes choosing your GP, consultations in your language, medication reminders, AI-assisted notes that your GP checks, and a team monitoring appointments, samples, results and follow-up whenever our clinics are open.
