Main sources
- TreatCompare compiled research and provider-published information
Methodology: We compare published private GP appointment prices and NHS GP access information. Suitability for online care, prescribing and referral depends on clinical assessment.
Online or in-person?
Online GP appointments can be efficient for straightforward issues, repeat advice or initial triage. In-person appointments may be needed for examination, physical symptoms, procedures or where the clinician cannot safely assess remotely.
