Private GP service

Vale Healthcare is pleased to be able to provide a private GP service, led by GP Dr Paul Williams, and available at the Cardiff Bay Clinic .

We understand that often there can be a wait to see your GP, so this private GP service is open to all patients, regardless of whether you are already registered at a GP practice locally. We aim to provide rapid access appointments, helping you to get quick and convenient access to a GP when you need it the most.

Dr Williams is an experienced general practitioner, who is supported by our hospital's nursing and reception staff.
