Spa Private Medical

Spa Private Medical has an emphasis on preventative medicine and lifestyle advice for both adults and children and caters for both acute and on-going physical and mental health problems, without the time and budget constraints of the NHS. Standard GP appointments are of 30mins duration and cost £120. Telephone appointments are 15mins duration and are charged at £60. Payment is generally by card or cash and patients will be expected to pre-pay by phone for their appointment. All fees include VAT_. _Longer appointments, or where equipment is required (eg some visa medicals, minor operations) may need more time but can be discussed when booking. 

Investigations such as blood tests are charged for separately & cost varies depending on the tests requested. X rays are generally done at the Nuffield Hospital or Cobalt Unit & again, cost will vary depending on requirement, as will more complex tests such as MRI/CT scans etc, though the doctor will usually be able to advise on these. Prescriptions are not charged for if part of a consult, but are otherwise charged at £10.
