What will it cost?

Each hospital sets its own prices and most publish guide prices for common treatments. Where a hospital's operator has a price page, the "See their prices" link above goes to it. We do not copy prices here: a quote in writing from the hospital, covering the consultation, tests, treatment and follow-up, is the only figure to rely on.

How do I start?

  • For the free route: ask your GP to refer you to the hospital you choose. Any hospital on this page that treats NHS patients can be chosen at referral.
  • To pay: contact the hospital directly and ask for a self-pay quote. You do not need a GP referral for a private consultation, though the hospital may ask for one.
  • A quicker first step: a private GP appointment or a private scan is usually available within days and does not commit you to private treatment.

Questions people ask

Do I have to pay to be seen quickly for trauma and orthopaedics near Cornwall?

Not necessarily. Probus Surgical Centre treats NHS patients for trauma and orthopaedics and in August 2026 most people it treated had waited 5 to 16 weeks, shorter than at Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust. You can ask your GP to refer you there under the NHS right to choose; the NHS pays.

How do I get a private quote?

Contact the hospital directly and ask for a fixed-price, all-inclusive quote in writing for the consultation, any tests, the treatment and follow-up. Most groups publish guide prices on their own websites; the links on this page go there.

Does seeing someone privately stop me using the NHS?

No. You can have a private consultation or scan and then return to the NHS for treatment, or be referred back to the NHS by the private consultant. You cannot mix NHS and private care within a single episode of treatment.
