NHS alternative private GP care in Brentford

Across the UK many patients face waits of a fortnight or more for routine GP appointments. That delay matters when problems are urgent, complex or simply need time to explain. Mayfield Clinic offers a practical NHS alternative private GP service for people in Brentford — faster access, longer appointments and continuity with a named doctor.

Why Brentford patients choose a private GP

Choosing a Private GP instead of NHS care doesn’t mean leaving the NHS. It means picking a Quick GP alternative in Brentford when you need one: same clinical standards, more time and appointment availability that fits your life. We often see patients who want a second opinion, urgent review of medicines or a calmer setting to discuss chronic issues.

Immediate availability and continuity: book once, see the same doctor for ongoing care.

How Mayfield Clinic works for Brentford residents

Our Brentford service is delivered from our nearby practice in Ealing, a short journey across the Thames. You can find local information here: Mayfield Clinic — Brentford. Appointments are booked online via the Book now button on our site; members may also book by phone or WhatsApp.

What to expect at your private GP appointment

Longer consultations (20–30 minutes standard) mean your doctor can take a full history, examine thoroughly and outline clear next steps: tests, referrals or personalised treatment plans. If you need a Private doctor because NHS waiting times are too long, we can provide same-day or next-day slots as a Quick GP alternative in Brentford.

Continuity of care and working with your NHS GP

We prioritise regular access to the same named doctor — continuity improves diagnosis and treatment. You don’t need to deregister from your NHS GP. We will share letters and recommendations with your NHS practice when you want us to, so care stays joined-up and safe.

Who benefits most from a private GP alternative in Brentford?

People who value faster access, longer consultations and a consistent doctor: professionals with limited time, families needing urgent reviews, and anyone who wants a second opinion on diagnosis or treatment. Our service is especially useful for those facing long NHS waits for specialist referral or diagnostic tests.

Local note about Brentford

Brentford sits on the Thames with a growing riverside community and strong connections to nearby Kew and Ealing. Many patients prefer a short trip to our Ealing practice for the guaranteed appointment time and comfortable consultation rooms — it’s often faster than waiting in the local NHS system.
