General practice is asking more of you every year. It is time to build something for yourself.

Avoid burnout

Take back control of your time

Choose your hours, your appointment lengths and your workload. See patients the way you were trained to, without the ten minute squeeze.

Independence

Build something for yourself

Your name, your services, your prices. Grow your private services and a reputation that work for you, not a rota.

Freedom

Keep the security you have

Start alongside your NHS or locum sessions and grow at your own pace. No big loan, no 14 month wait, no risk to your day job.

A simpler solution

Stop paying for 9 different suppliers. ThanksDoc brings it all together.

Going it alone typically means around £150,000 and 14 months before you see a patient, then monthly bills from every supplier. With ThanksDoc it is one membership.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Eligibility and professional requirements3 questions
Who can join ThanksDoc?

GMC registered GPs with a licence to practise. Every GP passes our 22 point compliance check before seeing patients.

What documents will I need?

You upload 22 compliance documents, including your GMC registration, an enhanced DBS and up to date mandatory training, and provide two references. We send you the full checklist when you sign up.

Can I keep my NHS or locum work?

Yes. Most GPs run their private service alongside NHS or locum sessions and grow it at their own pace. Do check your NHS contract for any conflict of interest terms.

Compliance, regulation and legal5 questions
Am I covered under your CQC registration?

Yes. You practise under ThanksDoc’s CQC registration, so you do not need to register with the CQC yourself.

Do I still need my own indemnity?

No. Gold and Platinum include medical indemnity, plus business and cyber insurance, covering almost all areas of general practice.

Who writes the policies and SOPs?

We do. Clinical governance, safeguarding, SOPs, audit and contracts are already written and kept up to date for you.

Who handles complaints?

Complaints follow the ThanksDoc complaints policy, and our governance team supports you through every stage.

Can I see patients outside England?

Our CQC registration covers services delivered to patients in England, online or in person.

Platform, website and bookings6 questions
What software do I get?

Electronic patient records, your own microsite with a booking link, and access to patient appointment requests through the ThanksDoc app.

Do I need a separate booking system?

No. Patients book through your microsite and booking link, which you can share anywhere.

Do I need my own website?

No. With Gold membership you do not need a website. You get a ThanksDoc microsite that is personal to you, with your profile, services, prices and booking link. Platinum members can also link their own full website or landing page.

If I want my own website, how can I get one built?

You can partner with our in house dev team, who have built websites for many GPs on the platform. A website typically takes about 1 week, with prices from £1,499. Book a free intro call to discuss your project.

How will patients find me?

You are searchable and bookable by patients on ThanksDoc, you can share your own link on social media and email, and partners in our network can refer patients to you.

Is the platform compliant?

Yes. ThanksDoc is ICO registered and built around UK GDPR, with secure records for every consultation.

Prescriptions and referrals3 questions
What medication can I prescribe?

You can issue private prescriptions for a broad range of non emergency conditions where clinically appropriate, including antibiotics, allergy medication, skin treatments, pain relief, digestive treatments, women’s and men’s health medication, mental health medication such as antidepressants, and chronic condition management such as inhalers and blood pressure medication.

Prescriptions can be sent to a pharmacy of the patient’s choice, emailed to them, or posted to their home.

What medication can I not prescribe?

Controlled drugs and medication for emergency conditions are not prescribed through ThanksDoc. This includes:

  • All Schedule 1 to 5 controlled drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 and Misuse of Drugs Regulations 2001
  • Opioids, such as codeine, tramadol, morphine and oxycodone
  • Benzodiazepines, such as diazepam and lorazepam
  • Z drugs, such as zopiclone and zolpidem
  • Gabapentinoids, such as gabapentin and pregabalin
  • Strong stimulants, such as methylphenidate and modafinil
  • Barbiturates, anabolic steroids and other drugs open to misuse

The full list is in our patient FAQs.

Can I refer patients on?

Yes. You can write referral letters to specialists and other services, and issue private fit notes where appropriate.

Your services, business and pricing6 questions
Can I launch online and in person face to face services?

Absolutely! You can launch online services, face to face services, or both.

For face to face services, we update our CQC documents to include your location once we have approved it and a location contract has been signed. The location contract is available when you sign up. It is signed by the location owner and confirms they will follow our governance and policies.

Can I choose my services and set my own prices?

Yes. You decide what you offer, when you are available and what you charge.

Will the service carry my name?

Yes. Your microsite is built around you, your services and your story, so patients book with you.

How much does membership cost?

Gold is £299 a month billed annually, or £399.83 a month billed every 6 months. Platinum is £399 a month billed annually, or £499.83 a month billed every 6 months. Prices exclude VAT.

What are the benefits of Platinum over Gold?

Platinum lets you link your own full website or landing page to your ThanksDoc profile. On your own site you can create as many pages as you like to describe your services in detail, and run Google Ads with full conversion tracking. The ThanksDoc microsite does not support Google Ads or tracking.

Platinum also adds featured listing, priority support and priority access to in person events. On both Gold and Platinum, you benefit from traffic sent directly from the ThanksDoc website to your profile and microsite.

Is there a minimum term?

Memberships are billed every 6 months or annually. Annual billing saves up to 25%.

Community and support4 questions
Will I get help when I launch?

Yes. You start with a free onboarding call and our team guides you through your first week, then supports you with governance as you grow.

What support can I access during my membership?

You are never on your own. As a member you can access:

  • Weekly drop in sessions to ask questions or get advice from our team
  • Email support for any queries about the platform, at info@thanksdoc.co.uk
  • Monthly practice meetings to hear updates, share ideas and discuss the day to day running of your private services
  • Regular webinars and events, online and in person, with priority places for Platinum members
Are there events for GPs?

Members can join our online events, and Platinum members get priority access to in person events.

Where can I find out more?

Watch our webinars on YouTube, book a free intro call, message us on WhatsApp or email info@thanksdoc.co.uk.

Stop working on everyone else’s terms. Launch your own private services.

We onboard a limited number of GPs at a time so each one gets hands on support. Places go quickly, so sign up now to secure yours.
