More and more people are choosing private healthcare for speed, continuity, and access to their own named doctor. Around 60% of patients find swift specialist appointments crucial for reassurance and fast treatment. Whether you’re living in Southborough or the surrounding area, you can benefit from all these advantages through our Tunbridge Wells practice, conveniently located just a short distance away.

What Makes a Private GP Referral Different?

Opting for a private GP referral means personalised support, short waiting times, and a considerate, thorough approach. Our clinicians take your concerns seriously and put you at the centre of the decision-making process. When it comes to referring you to a specialist, we’ve built a trusted network of private consultants—often in Oxford or London—to offer you the highest levels of expertise and care. We can also refer to NHS specialists if that’s the best route for you.
