How do I find a cosmetic surgeon?


At Spire Healthcare, you are able to choose the surgeon you would like to treat you. (Some providers don’t allow you to do this!)  You can use our Cosmetic surgery buyer’s guide (linked below) which can provide you with some cosmetic surgery information and guidance on the key questions to ask before choosing a surgeon.
 
 

Do you offer free consultations?


We believe that when you have a consultation with a surgeon it’s important to ensure that they are acting in your best interests as the patient.  We don’t offer free surgeon consultations because by paying for the consultation you are ensuring that they have one focus – your welfare as their patient.

 

A consultation with an experienced consultant surgeon is advice that is worth paying for. If you are offered a free consultation elsewhere, we recommend that you check that the consultation will be with the surgeon who would perform the procedure.

 

In addition at a Spire Healthcare hospital, you will be seeing the consultant surgeon who will take charge of your treatment - from your first consultation, through to your operation and follow-up care.

 

If you don't feel ready to arrange an appointment with a consultant surgeon, we offer free no-obligation appointments with our experienced specialist cosmetic surgery nurses. We would be pleased to arrange this for you and answer any questions you may have.

 

To arrange a consultant appointment or a free cosmetic nurse appointment, please call our cosmetic surgery team on 0800 434 6644 or enquire online.

 

 

Do I need a GP referral?


Most cosmetic surgeons working in Spire Healthcare hospitals will be happy to see you for an initial consultation without a referral letter from your GP.
 
 

How much will it cost?


For a guide price for the treatment you are interested in, please call our cosmetic surgery team on 0800 434 6644 or enquire online.

 

We will be able to give you a fixed price after your initial consultation with a cosmetic surgery consultant. The fixed price will cover all the costs of your treatment, such as hospital charges, surgeon and anaesthetist fees, and follow-up consultation - so you can budget ahead with confidence.
