NHS Alternative: Fast Private GP Care for Winnersh Patients

Private GP

20/10/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Accessible private GP care when NHS waits are too long

Nearly one in four patients say long waits affect their health decisions. If you live in Winnersh and find NHS waiting times slow, Mayfield Clinic offers a practical, professional alternative. We give immediate appointments, longer consultations and continuity of care so you can see the same named doctor each visit.

How our private GP service in Winnersh works

Although we list services for Winnersh, our consultations for Winnersh patients are delivered from our nearby Wokingham practice. Book online using the Book now button or visit our Winnersh location page here. For those who are members, appointments can also be booked by phone or WhatsApp. If you prefer a face-to-face appointment we will see you at our Wokingham clinic: Mayfield Clinic, Wokingham.

Faster access when you need it

Private GP appointments at Mayfield Clinic give you same-day or next-day access in many cases. That means urgent issues that would otherwise wait on an NHS list can be assessed and treated promptly. For Winnersh patients, this is an effective quick GP alternative to the NHS for acute problems, repeat prescriptions and second opinions.

Longer appointments, better conversations

We schedule longer appointment slots so your doctor has time to listen, examine and explain options. That extra time reduces the chance of repeat visits and ensures clearer care plans. If you live in Winnersh and value a thorough consultation, our model gives you more time with the clinician than a standard NHS slot.

Continuity of care with a named doctor

Seeing the same named doctor builds trust and improves outcomes. At Mayfield Clinic we match Winnersh patients with a regular GP wherever possible — one clinician who understands your history, medications and preferences. That continuity is a core reason many choose private healthcare over the NHS for ongoing conditions.

Working alongside your NHS GP

Using our private GP service does not mean leaving your NHS GP. We can provide second opinions, urgent reviews, and written summaries that you can share with your NHS practice. For Winnersh residents, this collaborative approach offers the immediacy of private care while keeping your NHS records up to date.
