What a plan can include

Every plan is different. Depending on what your doctor finds, yours might include:

  • A clear explanation of your options
  • Natural therapies, where your doctor considers them clinically appropriate
  • How to use any treatment safely, and what to expect
  • Follow-up consults to check how it’s going and adjust
  • A summary for your regular GP, if you’d like one

A consultation doesn’t guarantee any particular treatment. Eligibility is decided by your doctor after a consultation.

Common questions

Do I need to have tried other treatments first?

Generally, yes. Alternative therapies are usually considered when symptoms have lasted three months or more and standard treatments haven’t helped enough, or have caused side effects. Your doctor will ask what you’ve tried.

What if I’m pregnant, trying, or breastfeeding?

Tell your doctor. It changes which options are appropriate, and some won’t be suitable.

Will I definitely be offered treatment?

No. A consultation doesn’t guarantee any particular treatment. Your doctor recommends what’s clinically appropriate for you, and sometimes that means no treatment through us.

Can I keep seeing my regular GP?

Yes, and you should. Green Clinic isn’t a general practice. With your consent, we can send your GP a summary.
