Private services list and fees

Some services are not covered by the NHS and are private work. Although GPs are not obligated to complete non-NHS tasks, we offer these services because we understand they are useful and important to patients. As a result, GP practices must charge private fees to cover the time, administrative work, and resources required to provide these services, ensuring that NHS funds remain focused on providing core healthcare needs.

The fees for private work need to be paid in advance. We aim to complete all requests as efficiently as possible however, NHS work takes priority. Please allow 21 day turn-around time for private requests to be processed.

Please note that if amendments are required to a document that this may incur additional costs.
