27/04/2025 by Dr Marcus Gleave

Quick access to expert medical care shouldn't come with guesswork. In Reigate, many patients seek certainty: if they need a specialist, what's the most direct route? Recent NHS surveys show that nearly a quarter of patients experience delays or confusion when trying to access consultancy services. At Mayfield Clinic, we've streamlined this process for you.

How Private GP Referrals Work Near Reigate

Our private GPs can refer you directly to both private consultants and NHS specialists, speeding up your path to the care you need. It doesn't matter whether your concern is newly arising or longstanding. Patients in Reigate will be seen at our nearby Horsham practice, a short drive away, ensuring fast reassurance and expert guidance.

What Sets Mayfield Clinic Apart?

Private GP to NHS or Private Specialist: Your Choice

At your appointment, your GP will take the time to understand your needs. If a referral is required, you'll discuss whether a private specialist or an NHS consultant is best. Some patients choose to use a private GP for fast and in-depth assessment, then transition into NHS pathways. Others value the continuity and quicker appointments that private consultants provide. Either way, we handle the paperwork, appointments and follow-up for you.
