DAILY MAIL: PRIVATE GP CLINIC

Patients shun NHS for clinics run by Polish GPs: Cut-price private surgeries where you can see a doctor seven days a week

  • Despite charging £70 a visit, west London clinic already has almost 6,000 Britons on its books and offers 30minute slots
  • Two thirds of NHS patients have to wait more than 48 hours for doctor's appointment and few slots are available outside regular working week
  • My Medyk also offers dental surgery, varicose vein surgery, Botox, hypnotherapy, acupuncture and counselling session
  • Clinic was founded five years ago by two Polish doctors but now employs 50 staff, the majority of whom are Poles
