We see private insured and self-funding patients, as well as providing treatment for a number of specialities on the NHS, please speak to your GP regarding your patient choice on where you receive treatment.  Interest free finance options are available for self-funding patients to help make the cost of treatment more affordable.Those with private medical insurance should check their policy details with their provider prior to booking any appointments.

Patients can self-refer for a majority of our services without the need to see your GP. We also offer online booking with the majority of our consultants, allowing you to arrange your appointment without needing to speak to anyone.
