Choose safely

Routine appointments are not emergency care

Call 999 for life-threatening symptoms. Seek urgent help for chest pain, severe breathlessness, fainting, stroke symptoms or other sudden serious symptoms. Contact your GP promptly about a new or changing mole or a mark that bleeds, crusts, becomes painful or does not heal.

Before booking

What to confirm for your appointment

The service page should give you enough information to make an informed enquiry. Ask the clinic to clarify anything that remains uncertain.

Purpose and limits

Check what the appointment can assess, what it cannot rule out and whether another service is more appropriate.

Clinician and governance

Confirm who performs and reports the service, their role and the pathway for review or referral.

Preparation and consent

Follow the instructions for fasting, medicines, clothing, patch testing or other preparation specific to your appointment.

Price and follow-up

Confirm the exact fee, what is included, when results or aftercare are provided and who to contact with concerns.

Questions

Other services FAQs

How do I choose the right service?

Start with the service page that best matches your concern. If you are uncertain, contact the clinic before booking and describe the question you want the appointment to address.

Can I book more than one service?

Potentially, but each service should be clinically appropriate rather than automatically bundled. Ask whether separate preparation, appointment times or fees apply.

Are these services a replacement for my GP?

No. Private testing or treatment may provide useful information, but urgent symptoms, suspicious skin changes and ongoing medical problems may still require GP, NHS or specialist care.

Will I receive a report or follow-up?

This varies by service. Confirm the reporting, clinician-review, referral and aftercare arrangements before the appointment.

What should I do in an emergency?

Call 999 for life-threatening symptoms. For urgent medical advice when it is not a 999 emergency, use NHS 111 or the appropriate urgent-care service.
