At Woodlands Hospital in Darlington, our Private GP offers outpatient appointments for patients seeking advice and consultation. Our experienced team are equipped to investigate, diagnose and treat conditions that are causing pain and discomfort to these areas. Our appointments give patients the reassurance of being seen quickly by a GP, and the peace of mind of having fast access to any further treatment, tests and results if required.

Our private GP service offers the chance to take more control over your health.

The service is led by Dr Paul Mulcrone. He holds private, 30 minute appointments from our outpatient department every Tuesday. This gives you more time to discuss your concerns and increases the convenience of your appointment time. You can choose the exact date and time that suits you most. Dr Mulcrone can offer advice and treatment for a number of conditions. His clinical interests include dermatology and joint injections.

As well as longer appointment times, Dr Mulcrone can also offer:

  • Referrals for diagnostics and other specialist surgeons
  • Medication reviews
  • Private prescriptions

To find out more about Dr Mulcrone, head to his online profile where he discusses his background, clinical interests and training. You can also book an appointment directly from his profile. Alternatively, if you would prefer to book over the phone, please give our friendly enquiry team a call on 08081343301.

The price of an initial, 30 minute appointment with Dr Mulcrone is £100.
