NHS alternative: Private GP care for Beaconsfield patients with fast, named-doctor access

Private GP

20/10/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Why choose a private GP alternative when NHS waiting times bite?

Waiting lists are stretching longer across the UK; many patients in Beaconsfield tell us they can’t wait weeks for routine appointments. At Mayfield Clinic we provide a practical alternative to NHS GP care in Beaconsfield—fast access, longer consultations and continuity with the same named doctor.

How our private GP service works for Beaconsfield residents

You can book online via the Book now button; members may also book by phone or WhatsApp. Although we attract patients from Beaconsfield, appointments are delivered from our practice in Amersham, a short drive away. For full location details see our Beaconsfield page and our Amersham practice page.

Immediate availability when you need it

If you need same-day advice, a quicker referral or a second opinion instead of waiting on an NHS list, our private GP appointments prioritise speed without sacrificing quality. Quick GP alternative options in Beaconsfield include urgent face-to-face slots, telephone consultations and follow-ups with the same doctor.

Longer appointments, better conversations

NHS appointments often run to 10 minutes. Our private consultations routinely run 20–30 minutes, allowing a full clinical review, medication checks and time for questions. For patients from Beaconsfield this means meaningful appointments where treatment plans are co-created rather than rushed.

Named doctors and continuity of care

Seeing the same doctor regularly improves diagnostic accuracy and patient satisfaction. At Mayfield Clinic patients from Beaconsfield are assigned a named GP who coordinates care, liaises with your NHS GP when needed and keeps a clear, shared record.

Working alongside your NHS care

You don’t need to leave your NHS GP to use our services. We act as an NHS alternative for immediate needs while maintaining communication with your NHS team. That means faster investigations, urgent referrals and comprehensive second opinions without disrupting existing NHS relationships.

Examples of when private GP care helps Beaconsfield patients

- You need a speedier referral for imaging or specialist review.
- You want a second opinion after an inconclusive NHS appointment.
- You require a longer, unhurried consultation to manage chronic conditions.
- You need private sick notes or occupational health liaison quickly.
