The NHS is a very good institution with hard-working doctors and nurses who do a good job generally for a great many people. However, it’s no secret that the NHS is underfunded and that many doctors and nurses work far longer hours than is good for them or their patients. Health professionals can and do become tired and make mistakes.
While mistakes are relatively rare, they are a feature of hard-pressed public healthcare. And when over-worked doctors and nurses make mistakes it can be very costly for patients.
Those people with health worries need to be sure of getting focused and personal attention so that they’ll be diagnosed by a professional who isn’t over-tired or bogged down by bureaucratic procedures. The best way of ensuring such treatment is to use a private clinic.
Of course, it can be very costly to have private medical insurance. But a considerably cheaper option is to see a private GP in Manchester on a pay-as-you-go basis. Pay-as-you-go private healthcare means you can get private check-ups and private treatments quickly – at a time which suits you.
Also, a private clinic is ideal for those who wish to have a second medical opinion – either for peace of mind or because they feel they may have been misdiagnosed.
If you want to be sure of getting the best diagnoses, it really is best to see a private doctor.
