    The practical details

    Good questions.
    Clear answers.

    What to know before your first appointment or a conversation about ongoing care.

    Make an enquiry
    Do I need to join to see Dr Azhar?

    No. You can arrange an individual consultation for a particular concern, a health review or a second opinion. Ongoing concierge care is a separate option for those who would like a continuing relationship.

    How quickly can I be seen?

    When an urgent concern arises, Dr Azhar responds personally and arranges to see you as promptly as is clinically and practically possible, including outside conventional consulting hours. Same-day appointments may be possible; timing is confirmed personally and depends on clinical need and availability. Website enquiries are not continuously monitored.

    What does care cost?

    Fees are confirmed before an appointment. For ongoing concierge care, the scope of the arrangement and fees are agreed in writing before care begins. Tests, specialist appointments and other charges will be clarified where relevant.

    Can you visit my home or hotel?

    Home and hotel visits can be arranged across central London, including Knightsbridge, Belgravia, Mayfair, Chelsea and Kensington. The location, timing and fee are confirmed when arranging your visit.

    Can my assistant arrange an appointment?

    Yes. Personal assistants, family offices and hotel teams are welcome to coordinate practical arrangements. Clinical information is discussed with the patient and shared with others only where appropriate and authorised.

    What happens when Dr Azhar is away?

    Dr Azhar lets patients know in advance where possible and helps arrange suitable alternative care during periods when he is unavailable.

    Can I remain registered with my NHS GP?

    Yes. Private care can sit alongside your existing NHS care. Relevant information can be shared with your NHS GP, with your consent, to support continuity.

    Are telephone and video consultations available?

    Yes, for suitable advice, results and follow-up. An in-person assessment is arranged where examination is needed. Advice while abroad depends on your location, clinical needs and the relevant local requirements.

    Do you see children and families?

    Please mention your child’s age and the type of appointment needed. Suitability depends on the circumstances; Dr Azhar will confirm whether he can help and discuss the appropriate arrangements.

    Can I use medical insurance?

    Please check your policy and any authorisation requirements with your insurer before arranging care. Cover and reimbursement cannot be assumed.

    What should I do in an emergency?

    Call 999 or attend your nearest emergency department in a medical emergency. For urgent NHS advice in the UK, call 111. Website enquiries are not continuously monitored and are not an emergency service.

    Does Dr Azhar respond outside conventional consulting hours?

    When an urgent concern arises, Dr Azhar responds personally and arranges to see you as promptly as is clinically and practically possible, including outside conventional consulting hours. This personal responsiveness is part of the practice; it is not a continuously staffed emergency service. Access and cover arrangements are discussed with you.

    How do I arrange my first appointment?

    Begin with a private enquiry. Dr Azhar reviews enquiries personally and confirms the options, timing and fees. You can request a clinic appointment, a home or hotel visit, or a suitable telephone or video consultation.

    Will I see the same doctor?

    You see and speak with Dr Azhar himself. He keeps sight of your history, results and next steps. If he is unavailable, he helps arrange suitable alternative care.

    Can Dr Azhar prescribe medication?

    Prescriptions are issued only where clinically appropriate after a consultation and assessment, for collection from a pharmacy of your choice. The practice does not sell, supply or dispense medicines.

    Can Dr Azhar arrange blood tests and other investigations?

    Yes. Blood tests, imaging and other appropriate investigations can be arranged. Dr Azhar reviews the results personally, explains what they mean and agrees the next steps with you.

    Can Dr Azhar refer me to a specialist?

    Yes. When specialist advice is useful, Dr Azhar arranges the referral with the relevant history and results. He reviews the advice that follows and brings it into your overall care plan.

    Is my consultation confidential?

    Medical confidentiality applies wherever you are seen. Assistants and hotel teams may help with practical arrangements; clinical information is discussed directly with you and shared only where appropriate and authorised, or required by law.
