Referral letters for private consultations
Please do not arrange private consultations before your referral letter has been prepared.
Patients should allow 10 working days for the completion of referral letters. These letters are not charged to patients.
Requesting a letter from Your GP
GPs are increasingly being asked to undertake private, non-NHS work on behalf of patients. A fee is charged for this work to reflect the time involved outside of core NHS duties and the level of professional responsibility required. While we aim to complete all requests as efficiently as possible, patients should allow at least 6 weeks from receipt of payment.
Below, we have provided a general guide to our private work fees; however, not all services are listed. For further details on specific charges, please contact our GP Assistant on 01283 812210.
We will NOT begin any work without the fee being paid.
