The Service is a concierge service through which we seek to provide you with details of Practitioners. You can then decide to engage a Practitioner for the provision of medical services directly between you and your chosen Practitioner. As part of the Service, we will research the market in order to suggest Practitioners for you. We are not providers of medical services ourselves. We only survey the market to suggest Practitioners and may also arrange appointments on your behalf.

We are not responsible for the quality of medical care or medical advice provided by the Practitioner. That is between the Practitioner and you.

We are also not:

an emergency 24/7 medical service. IN AN EMERGENCY, YOU SHOULD CALL 999 OR ATTEND YOUR LOCAL EMERGENCY HEALTH CLINIC.

Your primary care physician and we would recommend that you access local health care for any immediate health concerns

Each time you pay a Fee it gives you the right to have one recommendation and appointment from that query. If you pay a Fee, you have one year from the date when you make the payment to make a query to us (our response to your query and us arranging an appointment may take place after expiry of the one year period). If you do not make a query during that year, then the Fee is non-refundable.

We will perform the Service with reasonable care and skill.

Following an initial interview with a Medstars Doctor we aim to provide recommendations of Practitioners and their available appointments to you within five working days. We will then be able to arrange an appointment with the Practitioner chosen by you. You must decide within 24 hours of receiving this information for us to be guaranteed to arrange the appointment on your behalf.

Where we arrange appointments on your behalf and you have confirmed that appointment, it is your responsibility to cancel an appointment if you are unable to attend. You will be responsible directly for the cost of your appointment and/or any fees for cancellation or non-attendance.

In order to provide the Service we rely on you to provide accurate information about yourself. We are not responsible for inaccurate responses that you may give which may lead to the wrong Practitioner being suggested.

A contract will be formed between us once we have received payment of the Fee from you. Payment is to be made by credit or debit card or by settling our invoice through bank transfer.

The Fee for the Service is £150 + VAT (20%) payable in advance. For each payment of £150 + VAT (20%) we will provide you with one set of recommendations and arrange an appointment for you if required.

We do not have to provide the Service unless and until you have paid the Fee.

You will pay the Practitioner directly for any appointments and/or treatment. We are not responsible for these charges. These charges will vary depending upon your chosen Practitioner and are additional to the Fee paid to us.

Our Fee is chargeable, whether or not you decide to go ahead with any appointment or treatment with a Practitioner.

You agree that we may start work on the Service before the end of this 14 day cancellation period and some or all of the Service may be completed within the cancellation period.

If you exercise your right to cancel, you will remain liable to pay for Service to the extent it has already been performed before we receive notice of cancellation. Where time has been spent, but the Service has not been completed we may not be able to give you something that is of use to you.

On expiry, cancellation or termination of these Terms we may immediately cease to provide the Service to you.

The nature of the Service is that we may need to hold and process your medical information and other personal data so that we can provide the Service.

Loss or damage is foreseeable if they were an obvious consequence of our breach or if they were contemplated by you and us at the time we entered into these Terms.

Whilst we do agree to seek to find Practitioners who may be appropriate for you we are not responsible or liable for the service provided by a Practitioner.

We do not in any way exclude or limit our liability for:

death or personal injury caused by our negligence;
