Coronavirus (COVID-19) information for patients and visitors

Your visit to a Spire hospital may be affected by local coronavirus restrictions. Once you've made an online booking, we'll only contact you if your appointment needs to be held virtually. If you don't hear from us, your appointment will be face to face.

Come to your appointment alone: To support social distancing and help protect our staff, patients and consultants, we’re restricting access in our hospitals except for exceptional circumstances so please come alone to your appointment.

Face masks: It is a mandatory requirement for patients to wear a mask within our hospitals unless medically exempt.

We do not offer Covid-19 testing as part of our private GP service.

Coronavirus symptoms

If you have any of the following symptoms, you will not be able to attend a face to face appointment. You should get a test and stay at home.

  • Recent onset of a new continuous cough
  • A high temperature
  • A loss of, or change in, normal sense of taste or smell (anosmia)

Please do not attend the hospital if you develop, or have had recent contact with anyone with the Covid symptoms listed above.

Please read the latest coronavirus (COVID-19) information

You'll be asked to list your symptoms as part of your booking so the GP is aware of why you want the appointment.

Does seeing a Spire GP affect my relationship with my NHS GP?

Having a Spire GP appointment does not result in any changes to the care you receive from your NHS GP and we recommend that you remain registered with your local NHS practice to ensure assistance in the event of a medical emergency.

Spire GP is not an alternative for emergency services

Please remember, Spire GP should not be seen as an alternative for emergency services. In the event of an emergency call 111 or 999 if you are within the United Kingdom.

What's included

In addition to the consultation with the GP, your appointment will also include where appropriate;

  • writing a private prescription
  • providing a referral to a Consultant
  • recommending and referring you for scans or X-rays and highlighting what other tests you may need.

You will be provided with an outcome letter detailing all of this and a copy will be sent to your NHS GP.

Any further investigations which you may require during or after your appointment, such as blood tests, scans, ECGs etc are not included in the cost of your appointment. Before any such tests are completed the GP will discuss with you why they think these tests should be carried out and the costs associated with them.

What's not

  • 24-hour health cover or emergency service
  • DVLA, visa or other specific medical checks
  • Repeat prescriptions, except where we have initiated treatment, or (exceptionally) in an emergency.
  • Minor surgery
  • Ongoing monitoring of long-term conditions where the NHS might be a more appropriate provider of this chronic disease management service.
  • To be treated for a reaction to any prescribed medication (this would be deemed an emergency
