When NHS waiting times stretch to weeks, Baldock patients need a practical alternative. Mayfield Clinic offers private GP appointments with immediate availability, longer consultations and the option to see the same named doctor for continuity of care. We’re an accessible option for people in Baldock who want faster diagnosis, clearer follow-up plans and more time to discuss complex or recurring issues.
Many patients value two things: speed and continuity. With Mayfield Clinic you can often book a same-day or next-day appointment, and regular patients are encouraged to see the same GP each visit. That’s especially helpful for chronic conditions, mental health reviews, occupational clearance and second opinions when NHS waits are long.
“You don’t need to leave your NHS GP — we work alongside existing care while providing rapid access and named doctors for Baldock patients.”
You can continue to be registered with your NHS GP while using Mayfield Clinic as an NHS alternative private GP in Baldock. We send consultation summaries and relevant test requests back to your NHS record on request, so your wider healthcare remains joined up. Use us for urgent problems, a second opinion, or when you simply need more time to talk through treatment options.
Appointments are longer than typical NHS slots, giving clinicians time to take a full history, examine thoroughly and agree a clear plan. Where testing or specialist referral is needed, we arrange it quickly. If you’re based in Baldock we’ll see you at our nearby Hitchin practice — it’s around a 15‑minute drive (about 6 miles) and we make the logistics clear when you book.
All appointments should be booked online via the Book now button on our website. Members can book directly by phone or via WhatsApp for extra convenience. For Baldock residents, view local details on our Baldock page and directions to where you’ll be seen at our Hitchin practice.
Private GP care is an investment in time and clarity. For many Baldock patients the benefit is avoiding repeated NHS appointments, faster onward testing, and personalised follow-up. We publish consultation fees clearly and offer membership options for anyone who prefers regular access to the same doctor.
Baldock has a proud market-town character and many residents tell us they prefer a reliable GP relationship rather than rotating clinicians. If you’re commuting between Baldock and nearby towns, an efficient appointment at Hitchin can save multiple trips and speed up care.
