Compare NHS vs privateMore than a price comparison
Most comparison sites show you prices. We show you the full picture — what the NHS offers, what private costs, what's included, and what to watch out for.
Check the NHS first
For dental, IVF and elective procedures, we show whether you qualify for NHS treatment and how long you'd wait.
See the real private cost
Not just the headline price. We track what's included, flag hidden costs, and show the gap between advertised and true cost.
Understand the trade-offs
NHS care is free at the point of use, but waiting times vary. Private care may be faster, but prices, inclusions and clinical pathways differ significantly. We lay out both for every treatment we cover.
Go direct
We link you straight to providers. No middleman, no handling of prescriptions or payments, no hidden fees from us.
