The Cademuir Clinic only accepts self payments. Private Health insurers will not pay for seeing a GP.
There is no up-front fee. We will send you an invoice after your appointment so you can pay via BACS transfer.
​We don’t have a card machine and are unable to take payment details over the phone. ​Cheque is acceptable.

At a time that is suitable for you. Including evenings and weekends.
If you need an appointment outwith normal working hours, please call the clinic and we will book you in at a time that you can make.

Absolutely. Yes.
​Guidance from the Department of Health says: ‘Patients who have chosen to pay privately for an element of their care are entitled to receive NHS diagnostic tests free of charge as long as they are eligible. A referral by a private GP for an NHS diagnostic test should not be any different from an NHS GP referral.’
