NHS alternative private GP in Acton — Fast access & named doctors

Private GP

08/09/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Why Acton patients choose a private GP alternative

Long waits are common: many patients face two weeks or more for routine NHS appointments. When speed matters, Mayfield Clinic offers a practical NHS alternative private GP in Acton — same clinical standards, quicker access, and longer appointments so your concerns are fully heard.

How our private GP service in Acton works

We provide comprehensive general practice care for people living in Acton. Appointments are easy to book online via the Book now button. Members can also book directly by phone or WhatsApp. While we attract patients searching for a Quick GP alternative in Acton, consultations take place at our nearby Ealing practice — you can find details here: Mayfield Clinic, Ealing.

What you can expect at your appointment

Expect longer consultations than a typical NHS slot, continuity with the same named doctor when possible, and a personalised management plan. Whether you need an urgent review, a second opinion, or time to talk through complex symptoms, our private doctors give focused, unhurried care.

"You don't need to leave your NHS GP to use our services — we work alongside existing care to fill gaps when NHS waiting times are too long."

Working alongside your NHS GP

We respect your NHS relationship. We can communicate with your NHS GP, send summaries, and provide referral letters or private investigations when needed. For Acton residents seeking a Private GP instead of NHS delays, this collaborative approach ensures continuity and safety.

Common reasons Acton patients choose Mayfield Clinic

Practical details for Acton patients

Although we serve Acton, consultations take place at our Ealing clinic. The trip from Acton Common to Ealing Broadway is typically under 20 minutes by car or public transport — many local patients find the shorter wait and continuity of care well worth the short journey. For full location information see our Acton page: Mayfield Clinic — Acton.

How to book

Book online right now using the Book now button. Members may book by phone or WhatsApp for additional convenience and same-day options where available. If you need urgent help, select an urgent appointment when booking and our team will aim to prioritise you.

Costs and next steps

Private appointments are priced differently from NHS consultations; please check our booking page for current fees. If you're unsure whether private care is right for you, book a short initial consultation and our doctor will advise the best plan — whether that's treatment, private investigations, or a coordinated return to NHS care.

Acton fact and local note

Acton is a patchwork of village-style high streets and green spaces; many residents prefer the convenience of a near-neighbour private clinic. Patients from North Acton and Acton Town frequently travel the short distance to Ealing for faster access and the same named GP.
