Dear all, may I ask this question?

I've already settled in England, so I get access to NHS. However, my father only sometimes visits me as a visitor from abroad.

Suppose he gets a minor problem like a cold or a headache, is there any way for him to see a GP? I'm willing to pay the fee, but my local GP told me that they don't see foreign visitors. Is it the same everywhere?

Thank you

You will have to find a (NHS) GP who is ready to see a fee paying private patient (e.g. - a visitor). Not everyone does it, but there are some who do.

Alternatively, search for private GP practices / clinics in / near to your location of residence.

Thanks a lot for your kind clarification.
