If you’re uncomfortable with disclosing what your private appointment booking is about, you can give simple answers to the receptionists like:

– ‘Prescription’
– ‘Test enquiry’
– ‘General appointment’

However it is standard practice in most countries to enquire about what your visit to the GP is about. This is so they can make a note to your doctor and streamline the process or give extra time to your appointment if needed. If you need an extended appointment, you can simply ask for a longer appointment over the phone.

– “I’m unsure how to describe my condition but I’ll need an extended appointment with my GP, please”
