The Benefits of Private Healthcare
Access is an increasing issue when trying to access General Practice services. Whether it’s Monday to Friday or the evening or weekends, waiting times for GP’s & Out-of-hour’s services are not keeping pace with modern living and patient need. Our solution is to remove barriers to access – online instant booking; the option of Virtual or face-to-face care; 9am to 9pm opening Monday to Friday & appointments all weekend. This is what we offer at each of our clinics – rapid access.
With our telephones manned from 9am to 9pm weekdays & 9am to 6pm Saturday & Sunday you should never have difficulty getting through to a member of staff.
We are also mindful of the cost of living crisis. We keep our prices affordable and heavily discount access to patients who sign-up for our range of valuable memberships – starting at £6.99/month a GP appointment becomes only £45!
Our VirtualGPNI service provides even more responsive access to clinicians – not only can you undertake a consultation on your phone from any location, your wait for this service should be less than 15 minutes. Appointments start at only £39.
Duality Healthcare brings you affordable & accessible Private Healthcare.
