£300 for the first 30 minutes
£185 for each additional 15 minutes
The fee includes a written clinical report.
Dr Brame is recognised by the major UK private medical insurers and is fee-assured where applicable. Patients are advised to confirm authorisation, excesses and any limits on consultation duration with their insurer before attending. Extended consultations may not always be covered in full.
If you need to cancel or rearrange an appointment, please provide as much notice as possible.
This policy allows appointment time to be offered to other patients where possible.
