Virtual GP at a glance

A Virtual GP appointment at The Vesey is a 15-minute video consultation with a private, GMC-registered GP for £25, our opening offer. You book online, join by a secure link in your browser, and the GP can issue a private prescription, a fit note or a referral letter if it is clinically appropriate. The Vesey is registered with the Care Quality Commission. On 26 September 2026 it was the lowest published price of the 12 UK online GP services compared below.

What can a virtual GP help with?

Most everyday GP problems can be sorted by video. If you are not sure, book anyway: if your GP decides you need to be examined, they will tell you where to go next.

Infections & minor illness

Urine, chest, ear, throat and skin infections; coughs, colds and stomach bugs.

Prescriptions

New prescriptions for common conditions, repeat prescription reviews and medication questions.

Fit notes & referral letters

A fit note (Med3) for work or a referral letter to a specialist, where clinically appropriate.

Mental health

Low mood, anxiety, stress and poor sleep, with a plan, medication where appropriate, or a referral to talking therapy.

Long-term conditions

Blood pressure, thyroid, type 2 diabetes and asthma reviews when your tests are up to date.

Results & blood tests

Go through blood test results, or plan the tests you need; we arrange blood tests at partner clinics across the UK & Ireland.

When a video appointment is not right

  • Chest pain, severe breathlessness, signs of a stroke or any emergency: call 999.
  • A child under two with a fever, or severe abdominal pain: they need to be seen in person.
  • Anything that needs an examination, such as a lump or a suspected fracture.
  • Controlled drugs (Schedule 2 and 3) are not started by video.

If you need to be seen, your GP will advise the right place: our Sutton Coldfield clinic, your NHS GP, an urgent treatment centre or A&E.

An NHS online consultation is free, but it usually starts with a form and a wait for a reply or a call back, and not every practice offers video. Insurer-run digital GP services are included with a policy rather than sold per appointment, so they are not listed. Medicine on a private prescription is paid to the pharmacy with every provider here, including us.

The GPs you will see

A Virtual GP appointment is with one of The Vesey’s own GPs, the same doctors who see patients at our Sutton Coldfield clinic. Every one is registered with the General Medical Council; the number beside each name is theirs to check on the GMC register.

Which GP you see depends on the day you book; your confirmation email names them. Meet the whole clinical team →

Before your appointment

Fifteen minutes goes further when you have these ready.

  • Your medicines: names and doses, including anything over the counter. A photo of the packets works.
  • Recent results or letters: blood tests, scans or specialist letters you want to discuss.
  • A short timeline: when it started, what has changed, what makes it better or worse.
  • Photos for skin problems: taken in good daylight before the call.
  • Your pharmacy: the name and town, in case you need a prescription.
  • A quiet, private space with a stable connection. Test your camera and microphone first.

Need a specialist rather than a GP?

Many of our consultants and specialists also see patients by video. Choose “Virtual consultation” when you book; video consultations are charged at the consultant’s usual consultation fee.

Virtual GP questions

A Virtual GP appointment at The Vesey costs £25 for a 15-minute video consultation with a GMC-registered GP, our opening offer. If the GP issues a private prescription, a fit note or a referral letter in your appointment, there is no extra charge from us; you pay the pharmacy for any medicine. There is no subscription or membership.
We cannot promise to be the cheapest at every moment, because other providers change their prices. When we checked the published prices of 11 other UK online and video GP services on 26 September 2026, every one of them cost more: the lowest was over half again our price for a 20-minute call, and most charged roughly double. Our Virtual GP is £25 for 15 minutes, and any prescription, fit note or referral letter issued in the appointment is included. The full, dated comparison is on this page.
One of The Vesey’s own GPs: the same GMC-registered doctors who see patients at our Sutton Coldfield clinic, including Dr Greg Spencer, Dr Malini Ashokkumar, Dr Yamini Ashokkumar, Dr Arathi Shanmugam and Dr Siddharth Jain. Which GP you see depends on the day you book; your confirmation email names them.

Yes. Where it is clinically appropriate, the GP can issue a private prescription and send it to a UK pharmacy of your choice; you pay the pharmacy for the medicine. Controlled drugs (Schedule 2 and 3, such as strong painkillers, benzodiazepines and ADHD stimulants) are not started by video, and some medicines need an in-person assessment first.
Yes. If, after assessing you, the GP judges that you are not fit for work, they can issue a fit note (Med3), sent to you after your appointment. There is no separate charge from us for it.
Most everyday GP problems: infections and minor illness, new and repeat prescriptions, fit notes and referral letters, low mood, anxiety and sleep problems, reviews of blood pressure, thyroid, diabetes and asthma, and going through blood test results.

Your GP will tell you. If you need an examination, a test or a scan, they will advise the right next step: an appointment at our Sutton Coldfield clinic, your NHS GP, an urgent treatment centre or A&E. If you have a medical emergency, call 999.

Yes. You can join from anywhere in the UK with a phone, tablet or computer and an internet connection, and a prescription can be sent to a UK pharmacy of your choice.
For one problem, usually yes: the GP takes a focused history and agrees a plan with you. If you have several problems or a complex history, a 30-minute GP appointment (£90) at our Sutton Coldfield clinic gives you more time.
Yes. A GP can talk through low mood, anxiety, stress and sleep problems, start or review medication where appropriate, and refer you to talking therapy or a psychiatrist. If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, call 999, NHS 111 (choose the mental health option) or Samaritans on 116 123. Do not wait for an appointment.

Yes. Many of our consultants and specialists also offer video consultations; choose “Virtual consultation” when you book. These are charged at the consultant’s usual consultation fee, not £25.
The £25 Virtual GP is self-pay: you pay by card when you book. Some insurers run their own virtual GP service for members, so check your policy if you are insured.
Every booking, including Virtual GP, follows our cancellation policy, which sets out when a refund or a free reschedule applies. You can read it at thevesey.co.uk/cancellation-policy.
