Hello,
Can anybody recommend a good private GP for kids, preferably one that could visit me at home, as I've got 2 little ones. I live in Wandsworth and I'm tired of not being taken seriously by my doctors.
Thanks in advance
Milooz

A private GP will not take you any more or less seriously. They will just be more available due to you paying them.

I can thoroughly recommend NIGHTINGALES DOCTORS, they have been a real life saver.

My newborn had problems feeding and the health visitors didn't seem to know what was wrong! Since I was recovering from a C Section I needed a home visit and one of my friends recommended NIGHTINGALES DOCTORS to me. The doctor was incredible empathetic and diagnosed at once that my son had silent reflux and sorted it out. He is now a very happy and healthy boy. It is such a relief to have someone to listen and help you when you don't know what is wrong with your child.

I hope this helps you.

Thanks for your answers.
To scurryfunge & pixieonaleaf: I agree with you, it's not what I meant
To Wilkble: do you have their details, I'm going to contact them. I'm really looking for someone I could build a strong relationship with and also home visit will be so convenient for me.
Thanks again

Hi Wilkble and Milooz,

I saw this thread and wanted to add, I have used Nightingales Doctors.

My toddler had a high fever over several days when I called my GP surgery I could only get an afternoon appointment and it was early morning so I found Nightingales on the net. Within 30 minutes Dr. Benson was at my house. She was amazing with my son and won over his trust allowing his chest, ears and throat to be examined. I found Dr. Benson to be very thorough and clearly explained everything she was doing. I would recommend this service to other mums. DLAB
