Medstars Concierge is a personalised service that uses real doctors to help you find and arrange the best private healthcare in the UK. We draw upon our expert clinical network and knowledge to find the right clinician and service for you. Our experts will speak with you to find out what your requirements are and then shortlist up to three suitable options for you. Once you have chosen we will then simply set up the the appointment for you, on your behalf.

A single concierge episode costs £250. Payment details will be taken following your initial conversation with one of our team. We will then arrange for you to have a telephone consultation with one of our expert doctors to understand what you are looking for. Please note, this fee does not include the price of your treatment - which is independent of Medstars, and may differ depending on your health insurance provider.

Contact Medstars via phone, email or enquiry form, and arrange a telephone appointment with one of our expert, regulated doctors. This doctor will then take the time to get to know you and your medical requirements. Our team of experts will then research the ideal doctors, using their extensive clinical network to find the right specialist for you. We will then schedule the appointment for you. All you need to do is show up!

For Medstars Concierge, as well as contact details, during your telephone consultation you will also be asked broad details of your problem, including your symptoms, their duration, and any medication or treatment that you have already received. You will need to state any requirements you have for a suitable practitioner (for example, whether you want someone who practices near where you live or work, or if you wish to see a female doctor). We may need to pass some of the information you provide on to potential practitioners, but we understand that it is otherwise confidential, and will not share it with anyone else. The Medstars clinician you speak to will be a regulated health practitioner who will abide by the confidentiality rules of their professional body. Please do look at our terms and privacy policies. Additionally, we are registered with the Information Commissioner's Office Ref. ZA062209 and handle all data in accordance with the Data Protection Act.

Medstars is run by expert practitioners. We therefore have a wide knowledge of the healthcare system, as well as a network of contacts in healthcare around the country. These are our starting points for finding suitable practitioners. We use online resources to research potential practitioners further, for example, to ensure that they provide private healthcare, and meet any requirements specified by patients, such as geographical location. Of course we check all potential providers against the regulators' lists to ensure that they are included. Once we have narrowed down the list, we make telephone contact with secretaries to ensure the practitioner will be available, what their initial fees are and to see how long patients have to wait for an appointment.

Your insurance company will send you to an appropriate specialist but there is no compulsion for them to find the best for your particular healthcare needs. For example you may need an operation on your knee. The insurance company may send you to an orthopaedic surgeon who has agreed to charge the insurance company the lowest fee for your care who can operate on knees but their real expertise is hip surgery. Medstars concierge will seek out and recommend a specialist whose primary expertise matches your need who will also match your insurance policy – maximising the benefit of your health insurance.
