About the Patient.info directory

Patient - you can trust us about your health

This directory is part of Patient.info, one of the UK’s most trusted sources of health information and support. Every month, millions of people use Patient.info to better understand their health and now, with our health and care services directory, we’re helping people take the next step: finding the right care, in the right place, at the right time.

Whether you’re looking for a nearby GP surgery, an urgent care centre, a care home, or specialist support, our directory brings together a wide range of NHS and private health and care providers in one place.

You can browse by location or category, helping you quickly find services that match your needs, from routine check-ups to long-term support.

Built on trusted information

Where available, we include official Care Quality Commission (CQC) ratings and inspection reports so you can see how providers perform when it comes to safety, effectiveness, responsiveness, leadership, and quality of care. We also draw on publicly available NHS and regulatory data to give you a clear picture of the services in your area.

We don’t recommend or rank providers. Our role is to make it easier for you to access accurate, up-to-date information about the services available, and decide what’s best for you or your loved ones.

Why we built this

At Patient.info, we know that accessing care can sometimes be confusing or overwhelming, especially when you’re not sure where to start. This directory is designed to give you clarity and control, whether you’re managing a long-term condition, seeking specialist care, or simply need to book a routine appointment.

We believe everyone deserves access to safe, effective, and compassionate care. This tool is just one way we’re helping to make the system easier to navigate, alongside our trusted health content, professional tools, and support communities.
