Rapid results ready for your GP

93%

ready in the same appointment

Of expected rapid test results, this proportion was ready for the GP to review and discuss with the patient during their appointment.

For this measure, a result counts as ready when it was available to the GP at least seven minutes before the appointment ended.

How we measure this

Based on qualifying rapid tests from investigations selected at booking, between 3 August and 31 October 2026. Uses their original check-in tests; excludes later additions, new-patient appointments, ferritin and TSH. Tests must fit the scheduled appointment and be ready seven minutes before the GP consultation actually ends, allowing time to discuss the results. Historical changes to a panel between booking and check-in cannot be identified.

In our patients’ words

Recent Google reviews from DocTap patients.

“Dr Nitin Mehra is an exceptional doctor who I cannot recommend highly enough. He is incredibly patient, understanding, compassionate and professional. He genuinely listens, takes concerns seriously and always provides thoughtful, practical medical advice without making you feel rushed. I have recommended him to my entire family, and he has become someone we genuinely trust and rely upon. His kindness, empathy and willingness to go above and beyond, particularly during challenging circumstances, are truly appreciated. A fantastic doctor and a real credit to DocTap. Thank you, Dr Mehra, for your continued care and support. Nana”

“I honestly cannot recommend Dr Fehmi enough. From start to finish, my experience was absolutely exceptional. I had a consultation and swab taken yesterday, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better service. Dr Fehmi was incredibly patient, attentive and thorough. At no point did I feel rushed, and she took the time to listen to my concerns, explain everything clearly and talk me through all the possible outcomes depending on my swab results. I left feeling fully informed, reassured and confident about the next steps. What really stood out to me was her efficiency and professionalism. Within just ONE hour of leaving my appointment, I had already received all of my referral letters! It’s rare to come across a doctor who combines such compassion, knowledge, professionalism and efficiency. Her service was genuinely impeccable, and I am so grateful for the care she provided. Thank you, Dr Fehmi. I couldn’t recommend you highly enough!”

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.
