Private Prescriptions | Private Medical Clinic

Requesting Medications

When you consult with one of our experienced GPs at the Private Medical Clinic, they assume complete responsibility for your healthcare, including the prescription of medications when required. This signifies that even if a private doctor has suggested a specific medication, your GP can still issue the prescription, provided specific conditions are satisfied.

It is advised to inform your NHS GP about any private prescriptions you receive to avoid duplication and ensure seamless continuity of care in your overall healthcare management.
