Home Visits

If you are too unwell to visit the clinic we can arrange a home/hotel visit.

Dr Ruhin Karim offers a home visiting service to assess patients and provides a traditional GP service.

He will visit you within the comfort of your home, hotel room, or office.



The service which Dr Karim provides is of the highest standard possible, catering each visit completely to your individual requirements.

This service can allocate as much time as you need, ensuring a relaxed and non-rushed experience giving adequate time to discuss your case thoroughly, write prescriptions, and make any specialist referrals.

We may call prior to visit to take partial history to ensure safety of patient and carriage of required equipment and drugs. We do not visit patients that are suspected to require urgent or emergency treatment.

We are open 8am to 6pm Monday to Friday and by appointment only. Home visits are available up to 8pm Monday to Friday. Outside these hours, a surcharge may apply. Please call 0203 7343629 or 0789 7343629 during 8am to 6pm to book an appointment or use the “REQUEST APPOINTMENT” link below.
