About Us
City Walk‑in Clinic has been supporting Londoners since 2010, caring for over 300,000 patients.
From our first location beneath the Gherkin to our current clinic near Liverpool Street, we have remained committed to fast, accessible care, clinical excellence, and seamless online booking.
Same‑Day Private GP
We offer blood tests, GP appointments, health screenings, visa medicals, and more. Never a need for a GP referral, just call us or book online.
City Walk-in Clinic was created to meet a very simple but increasingly urgent need: fast, high-quality medical care that fits around real life.
In a world where getting a GP appointment can take weeks and virtual consultations with insurers often fall short, we offer something refreshingly direct: experienced doctors, proper in-person assessments, same-day access, and clear follow-up, all without long waits or complicated processes.
Our Mission
We are a private medical clinic designed for people who value their health, their time, and the reassurance of being properly listened to. And for those monitoring their own health? Our blood profiles have been chosen by 50,000 people in the last two years alone.
We provide immediate access to any blood test you need, with qualified, UK-registered doctors, for acute symptoms, ongoing health concerns, and preventive care without the need to be registered, referred, or delayed.
Whether you wake up with a worrying symptom, need medical advice today, or simply want clarity and peace of mind, our doors are open.
Our History
Walk-in Clinic was founded in 2008 by Dr Enam Abood, who envisioned convenient and accessible private healthcare. At the time, accessing private healthcare was arduous and expensive.
She wanted to provide same-day appointments, affordable testing and clear fees to support new users of private healthcare and to support patients who needed services unavailable on the NHS.
Since then, Walk-in Clinic has supported over 150,000 patients with their primary care needs. In 2022, we helped almost 7,000 patients with blood testing through our safety-netted self-referral programme, allowing patients to take control of their health and avoid needing a GP referral.
Book easily. Be seen. Be taken seriously.
Appointments are unhurried, thorough, and focused on understanding the whole picture — not just ticking boxes. We listen carefully, ask the right questions, examine properly, and explain clearly what we think is going on and what happens next.
What we treat
Everything the NHS treats and more. City Walk-in Clinic covers a wide spectrum of everyday and urgent medical concerns, including acute infections, skin problems, lumps and swellings, headaches, urinary symptoms, abdominal pain, bowel changes, women’s and men’s health concerns, minor injuries, medication reviews, and second opinions.
We provide fast and easy blood tests, imaging, and specialist referrals quickly — often on the same day — ensuring continuity rather than leaving you to navigate the system alone.
One of the biggest frustrations patients face is delay — delay to tests, delay to results, delay to action.
At City Walk-in Clinic, we streamline this process. Our doctors can arrange a wide range of blood tests, scans, and specialist investigations without unnecessary waiting. Results are reviewed promptly by a clinician, explained clearly, and followed up with a plan.
Continuity & follow-up
We believe good medicine doesn’t end when the appointment finishes.
If you need a follow-up, we arrange it. If the results are abnormal, we contact you. If symptoms evolve, we reassess. Our doctors take responsibility for ongoing care rather than passing patients from service to service.
A clinic designed around people, not quotas
City Walk-in Clinic is intentionally human in its approach. We are not driven by volume targets or five-minute appointment slots. We give doctors the time and autonomy to practice medicine properly which means patients receive calmer, safer, and more thoughtful care.
Ideal for professionals, families & visitors
Our patients include busy professionals, parents, individuals managing ongoing conditions, and visitors to London who need prompt medical care without having to navigate unfamiliar systems.
Private, transparent & straightforward
We believe private healthcare should feel clear and ethical, not confusing or transactional. Our fees are transparent, our recommendations are clinically driven, and our priority is always appropriate care. Anytime you aren’t clear about a price, just ask.
Medical Specialists
We work with experienced consultants & healthcare professionals who have received positive feedback from our patients, and with whom we have established long-term relationships.
