The NHS is the backbone of our healthcare system, providing exceptional care to millions across the country. However, with growing pressures on services, it’s no surprise that securing a GP appointment has become increasingly challenging for many people.
According to recent figures, some patients are waiting up to two weeks for a routine GP appointment, and when that long-awaited appointment does come, it’s often limited to just 10 minutes.
While the NHS continues to do an amazing job under difficult circumstances, the reality is that these short appointments don’t always allow for the time and care that many people need.
New Private GP in Canterbury
That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the launch of our new Private GP Service in Canterbury, offering local residents a personalised alternative that works around their needs. Situated in the heart of the city, our peaceful, private clinic provides a calm and comfortable space, with convenient parking, where patients can take the time they need with an experienced GP.
"Our goal is to provide a welcoming environment where patients can take the time they need to share their concerns fully with their GP."
Appointments range from 20 to 60 minutes, giving you the flexibility to choose how long you want to spend with your doctor. Whether it’s a quick consultation or a more in-depth discussion, you’ll never feel rushed.
Our clinic’s serene atmosphere ensures a discreet, premium experience for those seeking a more exclusive level of care, without the pressures of busy waiting rooms. It's healthcare with the kind of attention to detail and personal touch that makes a real difference.
Client Services Director, Rachel Day, has spearheaded the introduction of this service after struggling to get GP appointments locally. She said “I’m thrilled to be launching a new private GP service here in Canterbury, where patients will have quicker, more convenient access to quality healthcare. Our goal is to provide a welcoming environment where patients can take the time they need to share their concerns fully with their GP.”
We’re delighted to welcome a highly experienced GP to lead the service, with limited in-clinic availability initially—two half-days per week—as we establish ourselves. However, with demand, we expect this to grow. For those who need more flexible options, we also offer evening video and telephone consultations with our remote GP, so you can access high-quality care at a time that suits your schedule.
Premium Private Health Services
What sets us apart is not only our bespoke service but also the ease with which you can access care. There’s no need to register with our clinic—you can simply book an appointment when it suits you, allowing complete flexibility. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition or need a same-day appointment for a minor health concern, we’re here for you.
While private healthcare does come at a cost, our service offers an exclusive experience for those who value the reassurance of having ample time with their GP, along with the convenience of a centrally located clinic with free parking. Choosing us not only benefits you by providing personalised care without the wait but also helps ease some of the burden on our NHS colleagues, who continue to work tirelessly for the community.
