I get a referral using a private doctor via a video call. Can speak to a GP usually same day, and then they fast track private treatment meaning see a specialist at a private hospital within 48 hrs max.

If anyone wants to do the same thing, I used this. https://doctorcareanywhere.com/what-...als-fit-notes/
It was included in my private medical insurance plan, but otherwise is costs £150 a year if you want to pay for it.
