Reasons For Using Our Private GP Services In Eastbourne

< Back to Services.  

There are a number of benefits from using our Private GP Service in Eastbourne and below we explain why you may wish to consider using our services.


Prompt Appointments and Reduced Waiting Times

One of the most significant benefits of our GP service is the reduced waiting time you will experience.

We have more flexibility regarding patient appointments and often benefit from short booking times, which is not always possible elsewhere. Longer appointments mean that patients have sufficient time to have their concerns heard and can discuss their proposed care plans in more depth.

Appointments are available during weekdays, in the evenings and at weekends, making them accessible for those unable to take time off from their working day, or who need help with transport to appointments. 


Personalised and Comprehensive Care

We have a smaller patient list, which allows our GPs to spend more time with you. This personalised approach means that your doctor can thoroughly assess your health, provide tailored advice, and offer a more comprehensive healthcare experience. 

Our GPs will be able to offer initial advice on any health problem you have that is not an emergency. If they don’t have the expertise, they will help you find the best place to go to get the right advice.

Access to Specialists

Our GPs have access to a network of specialists and consultants we can refer you to if necessary. This means that you can quickly access specialised care when required, without extended wait times that can be associated with NHS referrals. Alternatively, depending on your preference and budget, we can refer you to local NHS pathways.


Convenient Location and Flexibility

We are conveniently located in Hampden Park, served by a range of public transportation. You can choose an appointment at a time to suit you, for example in the evening or at weekends, which is helpful for people with busy schedules.
