Private GP Fees – Non-Registered Members

Prescribing Policy for Non-Registered Patients

We do not provide one-off prescriptions for controlled drugs, including ADHD medication, to patients who are not registered with the practice.

Safe prescribing of controlled medication requires ongoing review, monitoring, and clear continuity of care. For this reason, such prescriptions can only be issued within a registered, ongoing clinical relationship.

In exceptional circumstances, a very short emergency supply of a non-controlled medication may be considered at the discretion of the GP where:

1. There is clear evidence of an existing prescription, and
2. There is a clinical risk if treatment is interrupted.

Any decision to prescribe remains entirely at the discretion of the consulting GP.

Mental Health Consultations

Most mental health concerns require ongoing assessment and follow-up rather than a single appointment.

If you are not registered with the practice, we would generally recommend consulting your NHS GP, who can provide continuity of care, medication monitoring, and access to local psychological therapy services.

If you would like ongoing private mental health care, we would be pleased to discuss registration with the practice.
