Private GP

27/04/2025 by Dr Amanda Northridge

Looking for fast access to a dedicated GP in Burgess Hill? With NHS waiting times for routine GP appointments averaging more than a week in some areas, many local residents are seeking alternatives for prompt, personalised medical care. At Mayfield Clinic, we offer private GP consultations designed for those who value time, continuity, and a higher standard of healthcare.

What is a Private GP Consultation?

A private GP consultation is a face-to-face appointment where you can discuss any health concern with an experienced physician outside the NHS system. At Mayfield Clinic, bookings are flexible, our team is accessible, and our focus is on thorough, in-depth care. Each consultation, usually lasting at least 30 minutes, allows time to discuss complex or multiple issues—so nothing is rushed.
