The Nine Clinic

Private GP for International Patients Visiting London

London draws professionals, diplomats, families and visitors from every part of the world, and a need for medical care can arise at any point during a stay. The Nine Clinic offers international patients prompt access to experienced private GPs at our clinics on Harley Street and Sloane Square, with same-day appointments available and no requirement to be registered with an NHS practice.

Our doctors are accustomed to working with patients from different healthcare systems and backgrounds. Whether you require urgent attention, a routine consultation or onward referral to a specialist, we make the process straightforward and discreet.

Who We See

We welcome international patients across a broad range of situations. Visiting professionals and business travellers who need a same-day GP appointment will find both our London locations well situated for the city centre. Diplomats, embassy staff and their families who require consistent, confidential healthcare during their posting in the UK are also well served by our approach. Families travelling with children who need paediatric assessment, and individuals who have arrived in London for treatment and require coordinating GP support, are equally welcome. You can find full details on our services and fees page.

What a Consultation Includes

An appointment at The Nine Clinic covers whatever you need it to. For international patients, this commonly includes assessment and treatment of acute symptoms, prescription of medication, referral letters for specialist care within the UK, travel-related health advice, and medical documentation for insurance or embassy purposes.

Our doctors take time to understand your health background and any ongoing treatment you may be receiving at home. Where relevant, we can liaise with your usual healthcare provider or prepare a clinical summary to carry with you. For businesses with staff or visitors in London, we also provide corporate and organisational health services.

Appointments in Central London

Both our clinics are easily accessible from across London and the wider South East. Our Harley Street clinic sits at the heart of London’s private medical district in Marylebone, and our Sloane Square clinic serves Chelsea and the surrounding area. Appointments run Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm, with out-of-hours cover available through our alliance with The London General Practice.

To book, contact us directly on 020 3084 1600 or email info@thenineclinic.com. We recommend calling ahead so we can ensure a doctor with relevant experience is available to see you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be registered with a GP in the UK to book an appointment?

No. International patients can book directly with The Nine Clinic without any prior registration in the UK. We accept self-referrals and can usually offer a same-day appointment.

Can The Nine Clinic help with travel insurance claims?

Yes. Our doctors can provide the clinical documentation and reports required by most international travel insurance providers. Please mention your insurer when you book so we can prepare accordingly.

Are consultations available in languages other than English?

Please contact us in advance to discuss your requirements. We will do our best to accommodate language needs where possible, and can arrange for written correspondence to be provided in a form that your own doctor at home can use.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Please bring any relevant medical records or a list of current medications, your passport or identification, and details of your travel or health insurance if applicable. If you have been seen by a doctor before arriving in London, a summary of that consultation is also helpful.
