Same-day GP appointments
Acute infections, rashes, urinary symptoms, abdominal pain, respiratory illness, headaches — the things that bring you to a GP when an NHS slot isn't available quickly enough. Most appointments are 15–20 minutes.

Dr Haydar Bolat is one of the founding doctors at My Health & Wellbeing Clinic and serves as Clinical Director and CQC-registered manager.

About Dr Bolat
A GP who built this clinic.
Dr Bolat trained at one of London's main medical schools, qualifying as a doctor before completing GP specialist training in the UK and gaining membership of the Royal College of General Practitioners. He has spent more than a decade working in NHS and private general practice in London, with particular focus on East London communities.
He co-founded My Health & Wellbeing Clinic with the aim of building a clinic that takes time over its appointments, is honest about what private GP work can and can't fix, and refers onward without commission or hidden incentives when a consultant is needed. As CQC-registered manager, he holds clinical responsibility for the clinic's regulatory standards.
Day-to-day, Dr Bolat is the GP many of our patients see first — for everything from a same-day urgent concern, to a structured health check, to ongoing management of long-term conditions like hypertension or type 2 diabetes. He speaks English and Turkish, and a substantial share of the clinic's Turkish-speaking patient base is under his care.
What Dr Bolat sees
Clinical focus.
The range of work a generalist GP does in private practice. Many appointments are routine; some sit on the boundary of where a specialist referral makes more sense, and we'll say so.
Health screening & MOTs
Structured health checks including blood panels (full blood count, kidney/liver function, HbA1c, lipids, thyroid, vitamin D, ferritin), blood pressure assessment, BMI/waist measurement, ECG where indicated, and a follow-up consultation to discuss findings.
Chronic disease management
Hypertension, type 2 diabetes, raised cholesterol, asthma. Diagnostic review, medication initiation and titration, structured monitoring, and shared-care arrangements with your NHS GP where appropriate.
Men's health
Erectile dysfunction assessment, prostate symptoms, testosterone evaluation (BSSM-aligned), general male health screening, and frank conversations many patients find easier with a male GP who speaks their language.
Dermatology & minor procedures
Skin lesion assessment, mole checks, minor skin surgery, cyst and lipoma removal, suspicious-lesion triage with onward dermatology referral when needed. All excisions are sent for histology.
Medicals & reports
DVLA Group 1 and Group 2 medicals (D4), TfL PHV medicals, employer pre-employment checks, fitness-to-fly letters, insurance/legal medical reports, and immigration-related medical assessments (including KOLL language-waiver reports).

If you're booking
What to expect.
Standard appointment
Most GP consultations are 15–20 minutes; some health checks and chronic-disease reviews are 30 minutes. You'll be seen in a single appointment, with bloods or ECG (if needed) usually done on the same visit by our nurse team.
Follow-up
Results from on-site bloods are typically back within 24–48 hours via TDL (our laboratory partner). Follow-up consultations are scheduled to discuss results, refine treatment, or make onward referrals. With your consent, Dr Bolat writes to your NHS GP so your record stays joined-up.
Onward referrals
Where your case needs a hospital consultant, Dr Bolat refers to a panel of trusted specialists across London, matched to your specific need (cardiology, gastroenterology, urology, orthopaedics, etc). We don't take commission or referral fees from any external provider.
Insurance & self-pay
The clinic is recognised by major UK private medical insurers including Bupa, AXA Health, Vitality, Aviva, Cigna and WPA. Pre-authorisation is usually required. For self-pay patients, fees are confirmed before any test, procedure or report is started. Full pricing is on our price list.
