Introduction:Nearly one in three patients report waiting more than a week for a routine GP appointment in the region — but urgent problems can’t wait.

How our urgent private GP service works

Book online using the Book now button for a same day GP appointment in Pontypridd. We provide rapid access to experienced GPs who assess urgent, non‑life‑threatening conditions: infections, sprains and minor fractures, sudden chest or abdominal pain that isn’t severe, unexpected medication reactions, worsening chronic symptoms and other worrying signs. For residents of Pontypridd appointments take place at our Cardiff practice — find directions and details here: Mayfield Clinic Cardiff. For local information see our Pontypridd page: Pontypridd.

What to expect at a same‑day appointment

Your GP will take a focused history, examine you and explain likely causes in clear terms. We carry out on‑site tests where possible and can organise rapid blood tests, imaging or specialist referrals if required. If you need prescriptions, these are issued immediately. If further urgent hospital care is needed we will arrange a clear pathway and communicate directly with secondary care to speed things up.

Conditions we commonly treat

Our urgent private GP service covers: respiratory and urinary infections, acute skin infections, minor injuries and lacerations, sudden severe headaches that are not stroke signs, medication complications, acute worsening of asthma or COPD, and persistent high fevers. We do not replace emergency services for life‑threatening events — for severe chest pain, suspected stroke, loss of consciousness or major trauma call 999.

When to come to us — and when to go to A&E

If you’re experiencing worsening symptoms that started today or yesterday and are causing significant concern, a same‑day urgent private GP appointment in Pontypridd (seen in Cardiff) is a sensible step. However, for life‑threatening symptoms — severe chest pain, sudden weakness or slurred speech, severe breathing difficulty, major bleeding or collapse — call 999 or go to your nearest emergency department.

Local note

Pontypridd has a strong community spirit — from the markets near the historic bridge to cyclists along the Taff Trail — and we aim to integrate that local knowledge into care planning. Patients often tell us it’s reassuring to see a clinician who understands travel times and local services between Pontypridd and Cardiff.

“Same‑day care gives people the confidence to act early — early assessment makes treatment quicker and often simpler.”
