Choosing a private GP
What makes a highly rated private GP?
Patients comparing the best private GP options or looking for a top-rated private GP should look beyond a headline star score. Useful private GP reviews should be recent and read alongside independent regulation, clear pricing and evidence about how the service performs.
DocTap publishes patient ratings, recent Google reviews and monthly performance data for appointment start times, result turnaround, continuity of care and clinical-review outcomes. Together, these give you a fuller picture of the quality and reliability of our private GP service.

Questions about our ratings and performance data
- What should I look for when choosing the best private GP for me?
The best private GP for you should combine good clinical care with a service that fits your needs. Look for recent patient ratings and reviews, independent regulation, appropriately registered doctors, clear pricing and evidence about how care is delivered. DocTap publishes both patient feedback and monthly performance measures so you can assess the service for yourself.
- How should I compare private GP ratings and reviews?
A top-rated private GP may have strong patient feedback, but a headline score does not tell you everything. Check how recent the reviews are, how many patients responded and whether the provider also publishes evidence about appointment start times, result turnaround, continuity of care and clinical-review outcomes. Reading ratings, reviews and performance data together gives you a more rounded view.
- Are private GPs regulated?
Yes. Private GP services in England are overseen by the Care Quality Commission , while doctors must hold appropriate GMC registration and a licence to practise. The GMC also maintains the GP Register .
- Why doesn’t every completed appointment have a patient rating?
After every completed appointment, patients are invited to rate their experience, but responding is optional. The response rate shown for each monthly snapshot therefore reflects the patients who submitted a rating, and the most recent appointments may not yet have been rated. Patient ratings should be read alongside the broader operational and clinical measures on this page.
- Does ‘resolved in one visit’ mean no further care was needed?
No. For this measure, ‘resolved’ means that no patient-raised issue or qualifying follow-up was recorded within seven days. Some conditions appropriately require planned tests, referrals or further appointments, so this is a defined service measure rather than a guarantee that all care was completed in one visit.
