Fast Specialist Referrals and Second Opinions in London, Straight to the Right Consultant
Not every problem needs a GP. Some need a cardiologist, a gastroenterologist, an orthopaedic surgeon or a neurologist, and the hard part is rarely knowing that. It is getting in front of the right one quickly, with the right information, without spending months on a waiting list or being bounced between departments. That is the gap we close.
The Online GP by The Wellness gives you fast access to leading consultant specialists across London. A GP first assesses you, works out which specialty and which consultant fit your problem, and refers you directly, then coordinates the whole thing, your records, your scans, your appointment, so you are not managing it alone. The referral assessment is from £395, and consultant fees are confirmed clearly before you see them.

Why the referral itself matters
A referral is not just an introduction, it is the quality of thinking behind it. Sent to the wrong specialty, you waste a costly appointment and start again. Sent with a vague letter, the consultant spends your first session working out what a GP could have set out in advance. We take the time to get both right, matching you to the consultant whose expertise actually fits your problem and giving them a clear, informative letter and your relevant results, so your first appointment is productive from the first minute. That is where a good private GP earns their place, in the judgement, not just the signature.
The specialties we refer into
Cardiology, for chest symptoms, palpitations, blood pressure and heart risk
Gastroenterology, for gut symptoms, reflux, and bowel investigation
Orthopaedics and sports medicine, for joint, bone and back problems
Neurology, for headaches, dizziness, numbness and other neurological symptoms
Endocrinology, for thyroid, hormone and metabolic conditions
ENT, respiratory, rheumatology, urology, dermatology and more
Oncology, where a second opinion or fast specialist review is needed
Where imaging or blood tests would help the consultant, we arrange them first, so you arrive with the picture already in hand rather than being sent away to get it.
Tell us your symptoms and we will point you right
Second opinions, when you are not sure
A second opinion is not disloyalty to your first doctor, it is due diligence on something that matters. People come to us when a diagnosis does not sit right, when a treatment has been recommended and they want to understand the alternatives before committing, or when they have been told nothing is wrong but still do not feel well. We arrange a fresh, independent review by a relevant consultant, make sure they have all the existing records and scans so nothing is repeated needlessly, and help you weigh what you are told. Sometimes it confirms the original plan, which is its own reassurance. Sometimes it opens a door that had been missed.
Coordinated, so you are not the go-between
The exhausting part of private specialist care is usually the admin, chasing records, forwarding scans, booking around three different diaries. We take that on. Your GP stays involved as the thread running through it, your results and letters are gathered in one place, and if the consultant recommends further tests or a procedure, we help organise that too. You get the expertise of a specialist with the continuity of a GP who knows your whole story.
