Private GP

28/08/2025 by Dr Antony Malloy

Record numbers of patients are searching for a faster, more personal way to see a doctor. Some residents in Southwick want reliable access to a GP, without waiting weeks to be seen. A private doctor appointment could be the answer, especially if you need swift face-to-face or online consultations. Below, we explore why this option may help you get back on track with your health more quickly, and how Mayfield Clinic is ready to support you in Southwick.

Rapid Appointments and Extended Consultations

One repeated concern in healthcare is wait times. With our private GP service, you can typically be seen in days rather than weeks. There’s also the advantage of longer appointment slots—perfect if you prefer unrushed, thorough discussions. Having more time with your doctor means you can delve into every concern, from digestive upset to unresolved skin issues, and get personalised advice.

A Flexible Approach for Southwick-Based Patients

We deliver our private GP consultations from our practice in Hove, just a short journey away for those in Southwick. Our goal is to ensure you can book appointments when it suits you, with in-person and online options available. Members may arrange bookings via phone or WhatsApp, while all patients can use our online system and the Book now button.

Personalised Care from a Dedicated GP

Seeing the same GP repeatedly helps build trust and consistency in your care. It can make all the difference when managing chronic conditions or seeking lifestyle guidance. Our private GP philosophy is all about patient-centred treatment, which you might not always get from standard primary care. It’s why an increasing number of people in Southwick who need quick, unrushed support consider a private GP worth every penny.

Speedy Referrals and Specialist Access

If you need further investigation or specialised care, our private GP service can arrange referrals swiftly. From dermatologist appointments for persistent skin issues to gastroenterologists for digestive concerns, it’s a smoothly coordinated process. Keep in mind that our membership plan offers even more flexibility for patients seeking ongoing support.

“Patients appreciate the speed of appointments, the personal attention and faster access to specialists. It often transforms how they manage their health.”
