Online GP Service


The Online Surgery
The Online Surgery is a web-based GP service which gives you the same experience you would get when visiting your own GP Surgery, whilst sitting in the comfort of your home or office.  We give you access to GPs who can offer advice on varied and wide-ranging issues. The Online Surgery not only offers GP consultation but also offers onward referrals, diagnostic test kits and a vast range of prescription medication.

We provide highly affordable private healthcare, backed by one of the UKs foremost primary care providers who have been delivering primary care services for close to 4 decades, prescribing over 300,000 prescriptions a year and employing more than 150 UK based clinicians.

The Online Surgery concept was developed by its Clinical Director, Dr.Helen Webberley, a practicing GP since 1995, in response to the increased need for patients to have access to healthcare expertise from home or work, at a time that suited them.
