How Private GPs help in Worthing: Key Services & Practical Insights

Private general practice is growing across the UK, and Worthing is no exception. In a bustling seaside town known for its historic pier and vibrant seafront atmosphere, it can feel challenging to find a GP who delivers in-depth care with minimal waiting. One interesting statistic suggests that local waiting times for routine appointments can sometimes exceed two weeks. Faced with this, many people in Worthing want faster access to the same named doctor. That’s where a private GP can help.

Extensive Services and Personalised Support

A private GP provides most of the services you’d see at an NHS surgery, but with swift appointment availability and a focus on one-to-one continuity. What our GPs can help with includes physical examinations, second opinions, and diagnostic tests such as blood work or MRIs. We also offer travel vaccinations, minor injury management, immunisations, and personalised care plans for a variety of conditions. If you’re looking for comprehensive care for the entire family, a private GP can provide ongoing medical support for children, adults, and older relatives in Worthing.

Are There Any Limitations?

While our private GPs in the Worthing area cover a wide range of needs, there are still a few restrictions. We can’t assist with certain specialised or emergency scenarios, which are better handled by hospitals or specialised NHS teams. If you’re curious about these exceptions, please see What our GPs can't help with. We strive to be transparent and ensure you know exactly what our scope of practice entails.
