The Oakley Medical Practice has short waiting times (often same day availability) , fast testing, screening and referral, and quick diagnosis and treatment. We understand the stress that can come with healthcare assessments and appointments, so we put your comfort and convenience at the forefront.
What’s the Difference Between Public and Private Healthcare?
Public healthcare is funded through taxes and government budgets. Due to strains on the NHS, there is often limited appointment availability, slower diagnosis and the quality of care provided can be reduced. Private GPs, including Oakley Medical, ensure that facilities are comfortable and welcoming and that your health issues are addressed swiftly, with far shorter waiting times.
Furthermore, public GPs regularly struggle with funding constraints, which may transcend into the resources for modern technologies and treatments. Private practices, on the other hand, are usually equipped with the latest medical technology allowing them to offer services and testing not available on the NHS.
Lastly, private GPs have the ability to offer a more patient-centred approach, allowing for flexibility and deference from standard procedures that public facilities must follow.
