Bedfordshire-based GP Dr Zamiel Hussain founded AccessGP to make healthcare simpler, faster, and more accessible for people who do not always need to wait for an NHS appointment. 

After working in both NHS and private practice, Dr Hussain saw how stretched traditional GP services had become and how many patients were left waiting for help with issues that could be safely managed through convenient, routine, online consultations.

AccessGP is a digital-first GP service that offers video and telephone appointments, blood tests, and virtual physiotherapy, all accessible from home or work.

The service focuses on non-urgent, routine, and lifestyle health needs, such as fatigue, skin conditions, stress, travel health, and men’s or women’s health. Patients can book directly online at AccessGP.co.uk, often securing same-day appointments.

Rather than replace traditional NHS care, AccessGP works to complement it. The service bridges the gap for those who need accessible, affordable GP advice without the long waiting lists or the pressure many local surgeries face.

Although AccessGP operates nationwide, its roots are proudly local. The company is headquartered locally and serves patients across Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, and surrounding areas.

The idea for AccessGP began to take shape as it became apparent that technology could bridge the gap between growing patient demand.

With safe protocols in place, video consultations became an essential link between patients and clinicians. Since then, Dr Hussain and his team have developed the platform into a modern, patient-centred service.

AccessGP officially launched in 2025 after testing, patient feedback, and refining the online experience.

The mission is simple: to make good healthcare accessible without the wait. AccessGP was designed for people balancing work, family, and busy lives who still want quality care, continuity, and trusted medical advice.

Every consultation is carried out by UK-trained GPs, with secure notes, transparent pricing, and no long-term contracts.

For those seeking ongoing convenience, membership options include continuing access to appointments, discounted blood tests and scans, and an annual health check.

It brings modern primary care closer to the streaming-style simplicity that many people have come to expect in other parts of life.

Dr Hussain explains, “AccessGP is not about replacing your local surgery. It is about helping people get seen when they need to, for things that do not always require an NHS slot. We believe in working alongside traditional care to relieve pressure and give patients more choice.”
