Trying to see your GP but can’t get an appointment? You’re not alone. More people across Bolton, Wigan, Horwich, and Chorley are turning to private GP services for faster answers and peace of mind.

At Ready Health Clinic in Standish, we offer same-day or next-day GP appointments for people across Bolton, Wigan, Chorley, and Horwich. Here’s why it might be the right choice for you.

What Are the Benefits of Seeing a Private GP?

  • Shorter waiting times – no long queues or delays

  • Longer appointment slots – time to properly discuss your health

  • Continuity of care – see the same doctor each time if you choose

  • More flexible scheduling – early morning or evening options

  • Direct access to blood tests, referrals, and treatment

What Can a Private GP Help With?

Pretty much everything a regular GP can—but faster and with more time to listen. We can support you with:

  • General check-ups and new symptoms

  • Chronic condition management (like asthma, diabetes, or high blood pressure)

  • Mental health concerns

  • Skin issues

  • Women's and men's health

  • Private prescriptions and referrals

Common Reasons People Book:

  • Ongoing symptoms with no clear diagnosis
  • Second opinion on an NHS diagnosis or treatment
  • Private blood tests, scans, or prescriptions
  • Health checks and preventative care
  • Mental health support

How It Works

  1. Book online or by phone
  2. Choose a time that works for you (evening and weekend slots often available)
  3. Attend a relaxed, confidential appointment with one of our experienced GPs
  4. Get clear advice, test options, and any treatment plans on the same day

Who Will I See?

You’ll meet one of our expert GPs at Ready Health—backed by our wider team of nurses, pharmacists, counsellors, and other specialists if needed.

Is It Worth It?

If you value your time, want to avoid the stress of delays, or just prefer a more in-depth conversation about your health, a private GP could be exactly what you need.

How Much Does It Cost?

Private GP appointments are more affordable than many expect. You pay per visit, with no need for private insurance. Blood tests, prescriptions, and extra services are available if needed.
