Direct Match by Patient2Doctor
Post your case once. A private consultant comes to you. £50.
The cheaper option. You write what is wrong. A consultant reads it and takes your case. You each pay £50, and only then do you get each other's details. You message, meet, and agree the consultation fee between you.
Post your case
Posting is free. Nothing to pay until you choose to. Your name, phone and email are not shown to anyone until you and the consultant have both paid. Not for anything urgent: ring 111 or 999.
How it works
- You post your case. Free.
- Verified consultants in that speciality are told straight away. One reads it, without your name, and takes it.
- You pay £50. The consultant pays £50.
- Once both payments are in, you each see the other's name, phone and email.
- You message each other, meet up, and agree the consultation fee between you.
If only one of you pays, nothing is shared and that £50 comes back. Want it all written down instead, with named consultants and a signed letter? That is REFER, £495.
A patient has posted a case. Read it, then take it.
Taking the case costs £50, paid after this step. The patient pays £50 too. Details go both ways only once both payments are in.
The case, without the patient's name
Your GMC number is checked against the register by Dr Yogesh Patel before anything is shared. Your details are shown to the patient only once you have both paid.
What happens next
- You take the case and pay £50.
- The patient pays £50 for your details.
- Once both payments are in, you each see the other's name, phone and email.
- You message each other, arrange to meet, and agree your fee between you. No subscription, no cut of your fee.
If only one of you pays, nothing is shared and that £50 comes back.
Your case is posted.
Your £50
Before you pay, so it's clear
- Two payments, one each. You pay £50. The other side pays £50.
- Nothing is shared until both are in. Your payment on its own reveals nothing to anyone.
- Once both are in, this page shows you the other side's name, phone and email, and shows them yours. You message each other, arrange to meet up, and agree the consultation fee between you. Patient2Doctor has no part in that and takes no cut of it.
- If only one of you pays, nothing is shared and that £50 is refunded.
- This £50 is the introduction fee. It is not the consultation fee.
You don't need a PayPal account. Choose "Pay with a card" on the PayPal page. PayPal brings you back here when it's done. Payment goes to Dr Yogesh Patel, GP Partner, GMC 6064097.
Your payment
Thank you. PayPal is confirming it.
Usually within a few minutes. This page checks by itself, so leave it open, or come back to this same address later. Nothing is shared until the other side's £50 is in too.
Your payment
Your £50 is in.
Now waiting for the other side's £50. The moment it lands, this page shows their details, and yours go to them. Leave it open or come back to this same address.
Both payments are in
Here is who you're talking to.
They can see your name, phone and email too. Message or ring each other, arrange to meet, and agree the consultation fee between you. That is entirely between the two of you.
Introductions only. What happens at the appointment is between you and them.
That link doesn't match a case. Check the address you were sent, or post a case.
