What is a telephone appointment for?
At Connect Private GP, we know that convenience and flexibility are an important part of accessing the care you need. Thatโs why, alongside in-person appointments at our surgery, we also provide telephone consultations with our experienced GPs.
A telephone consultation offers you the opportunity to discuss your health concerns quickly and effectively, all from the comfort of your own home. This service is ideal for:
- Receiving medical advice and reassurance at a time that works for you
- Discussing test results or ongoing treatment plans
- Addressing straightforward health issues or prescription requests
- Deciding whether a face-to-face appointment is the best next step
If youโd like, we can arrange an initial telephone consultation before a face-to-face appointment, helping you feel confident and supported in your care journey.
How long are appointments?
Each standard GP consultation lasts up to 30 minutes, giving you time to discuss your symptoms and medical history in detail.
Can I book a blood test directly online?
Blood test appointments are organised by our team after your consultation. They are not available for direct online booking to ensure tests are clinically appropriate.

๐ง Wellness and Aesthetic Treatments
Do you offer weight loss treatments?
Yes. We provide clinically supervised weight management programmes, including prescription-based options where appropriate.
What aesthetic treatments do you offer?
We currently offer anti-wrinkle treatment, microneedling, skin boosters, polynucleotides and exosomes.
Do you provide anti-wrinkle injections?
Yes. Our GPs are trained in aesthetic treatments and offer anti-wrinkle injections for cosmetic and medical purposes in a safe clinical environment.
What is microneedling and how does it benefit the skin?
Microneedling is a collagen-induction treatment that uses very fine needles to create tiny micro-channels in the skin. This stimulates the bodyโs natural healing response, boosting collagen and elastin production. It can improve skin texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars and overall radiance. Mild redness may occur for 24โ48 hours after treatment.
What are skin boosters?
Skin boosters are injectable or topical treatments designed to improve overall skin quality rather than change facial shape. They hydrate the skin deeply, stimulate collagen production and enhance elasticity, helping to improve fine lines, texture and radiance. They are ideal for patients who want natural-looking skin rejuvenation.
What are polynucleotides (Rejuran) and how do they work?
Polynucleotides are regenerative molecules derived from DNA fragments that help repair and rejuvenate the skin at a cellular level. Treatments such as Rejuran stimulate collagen production, improve skin elasticity and support tissue regeneration, resulting in healthier, firmer and more hydrated skin over time.
What are exosomes and how are they used in skin treatments?
Exosomes are tiny biological particles that carry signals between cells and help stimulate skin repair and regeneration. In aesthetics, they are commonly applied topically during procedures such as microneedling to enhance healing, collagen production and overall skin rejuvenation.
How many treatments will I need?
Most skin rejuvenation treatments work best as a course of sessions. For example, microneedling or regenerative treatments such as skin boosters or polynucleotides are commonly performed in a series of 3โ4 sessions spaced several weeks apart, followed by occasional maintenance treatments depending on your skin goals.
Is there any downtime after these treatments?
Downtime is generally minimal. Patients may experience mild redness, swelling or small injection marks for 24โ48 hours depending on the treatment. Most people are able to return to normal activities shortly after the procedure.
Are these treatments safe?
All aesthetic treatments are carried out by qualified medical professionals following a clinical consultation. During your consultation we will assess your skin, discuss your goals and ensure the treatment is appropriate and safe for you.
Are these treatments suitable for everyone?
Suitability is assessed during your initial consultation to ensure the safest and most effective treatment for your needs.
