Online GP appointments cost £29 – £49.

Today. We normally have Online GP appointments available the same day, and we almost always have appointments available within 24 hours.

Our online GP service is open from 8am–10pm, 7 days a week.

When a prescription is issued, the consultation notes are sent to the patient’s own GP with patient consent. In the rare case that there is a safeguarding or emergency issue, patient data can be shared without consent.

No, our doctors do not have access to your NHS records.

Your doctor will call you on your mobile if you have technical difficulties during your consultation.

You can also contact us on 02036378398 if you have ongoing difficulties.

Please check your email confirmation for more support options.

Medicspot’s Online GP appointments start at £49. A GP appointment can be booked online for the same day, subject to availability. 

There are no additional or hidden fees. 

Our doctors write prescriptions for free (not all private GP services offer this) but you will need to pay for any medication prescribed – or prove that you are entitled to free prescriptions – as normal.

Standard consultations last up to 10-12 minutes. 

You will need a mobile device with a camera and microphone as well as a good internet connection. You can also use your laptop device if it is running the most up to date version of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or Opera but we suggest using your mobile phone or tablet.

We suggest that you do not try to use private or incognito browsing as this can cause issues when trying to connect your camera and microphone.

Where possible, we will always try to accommodate a patient’s preference to  speak to a male or female doctor.

A remote consultation with an online GP allows most patients to receive the advice, reassurance and, where appropriate, diagnosis they need. In some circumstances, if your symptoms require a physical examination, or a repeat prescription, you may be referred to your own GP. The service is not a replacement for your own GP, and for chronic conditions requiring ongoing care you should see your own GP.  

Yes, children are able to use the online GP service. Our Doctors can treat adults, children and infants.

Any children below the age of 16 must have their appointment booked by their parent or guardian.

You must be a resident and/or national of the United Kingdom, its Crown Dependencies or the Republic of Ireland to be eligible to use our services. By accessing and using our services, you are confirming that you are eligible. 

Where the GP believes it is clinically appropriate,  they can issue private prescriptions. The  medication can either be collected from a nominated pharmacy or delivered to a  nominated address. Since these are private  prescriptions, the pharmacy will charge for the  medication. For delivery, there is a charge for postage and packaging. The online pharmacy will contact you directly to take payment.

In line with clinical best practice guidelines for remote prescribing, our GPs are unable to issue  long term, repeat medication. Should you require repeat prescription medication, it is in your best interests to be seen by your regular GP.  

Our GPs can offer advice on medication you are taking and may be able to offer short course medication depending on the symptoms presented. 

If the patient is in the UK or a Crown Dependency  at the time of their consultation and are offered a prescription, then provided it is in stock and the prescription is raised before 4pm (UK time), it can be delivered to an address of their choice as soon as the next working day.  

Our pharmacy partner will contact them by telephone shortly after the consultation. A range of delivery speeds are available which they will discuss at the time. 

The total cost will depend on the destination and chosen delivery option. Next day delivery to a Crown Dependency cannot be guaranteed and may be affected by local customs regulations. 

Whilst the cost of medication varies, there is a minimum charge of £6.50 per item for postage. 

There is no P&P for collection of prescription medication at local pharmacies. Medication charges will vary between pharmacies.

If it is clinically appropriate and if the service is  available to you, the clinician can issue a private fit note. We do not charge for issuing private fit notes, but you will need to check with your employer to confirm that they will accept one. Private fit notes cannot be used to access state funded sick pay or benefits.
