Feeling frustrated by long NHS waits in Bradley Stoke? Turning to a private GP can open doors to faster specialist care – but many patients still wonder: can a private GP actually refer you to a specialist or even the NHS? Let’s shed some light on how referrals work at Mayfield Clinic for Bradley Stoke residents.
When you visit our Bristol practice (which provides care to patients from Bradley Stoke – learn more about how we serve Bradley Stoke here), you’ll get the benefit of a private GP who gives you time. That means thorough assessment, clear communication, and no rushed appointments.
If your GP thinks you need specialist advice – whether for ongoing headaches, abnormal blood tests, skin lesions, or something complex – you’ll be guided through your options. We work with a trusted network of private consultants, primarily in Oxford and London, but also with experts across the UK. Every specialist is handpicked for their clinical excellence and reputation for patient care.
Yes, absolutely. One of the most common questions we get is: “Can your private GP refer me to an NHS specialist?” – and the answer is yes. A private GP referral letter is accepted by NHS hospitals and clinics. Sometimes, this can even help streamline your journey back into NHS care, especially if you need a particular specialist or further investigations.
Our aim is to make the referral process transparent, supportive, and focused on what suits you best – whether private or NHS.
Every referral from Mayfield Clinic includes a detailed letter sent directly to your chosen specialist. You stay in control of your care – we’ll explain each option, whether it’s accessing the consultant privately, or making use of NHS pathways.
If you’re based in Bradley Stoke, you’ll attend your initial private GP appointment at our Bristol clinic. We can coordinate follow-ups, referrals and even help you access additional testing swiftly, thanks to our network. We also keep detailed records to ensure seamless continuity between GP and specialist, so you don’t have to repeat yourself at every step.
