Website unavailable?

Restore your online presence.

Talk to us about an interim information page or a replacement website. We will review available content, domain access and the information your patients need most.

Tell us what has stopped working. Your website and third-party clinical systems may need separate solutions.

Discuss urgent website support
Planning a change?

Build a better practice website.

Replace an outdated design, simplify patient journeys or bring several practice websites into a consistent structure. Start with the outcome your team needs.

We agree scope, migration, timescales and ongoing support before development begins.

Plan your GP website

Designed around general practice

What your GP website
needs to do well.

GP website design is about more than a new homepage. It brings together useful content, accessible journeys and the technical foundations that keep information easy to reach.

01

GP website design

A consistent visual design, clear page structure and practical navigation for your surgery. We adapt the website around the services you offer and the people who use them.

02

Patient access on every screen

Mobile layouts with legible text and easy-to-use links. Patients should be able to find the next step on a phone, tablet or desktop without searching through clutter.

03

Content that makes sense

Plain-English information for appointments, prescriptions, registration and practice contacts. We review existing content and identify gaps with your practice team.

04

Your existing online services

Clear routes to approved appointment, prescription and consultation systems. We check provider requirements before proposing any embedded tools or deeper integrations.

05

Migration and technical setup

A planned move covering available content, domain access, important page URLs and redirects. We check the handover requirements before scheduling your launch.

06

Hosting and ongoing support

Agree hosting, maintenance and content support as part of your package. Know who to contact when opening hours change, a service moves or your website needs attention.

Less searching. Clearer next steps.

A GP website that starts
with the patient.

Someone visiting your surgery website usually has a task in mind. They may be unwell, short of time or unfamiliar with digital services. The design should help them move forward.

We organise the important information around what patients need to do, with visible contact details and clear routes to the appropriate service. Your practice approves the operational and clinical information before it is published.

Patient journeys we plan around

01

Appointments and online help

Explain the options and where each request goes.

02

Prescriptions and results

Make repeat requests and results guidance easy to locate.

03

Registration and practice information

Help patients find joining instructions, contacts and opening hours.

04

Accessible alternatives

Make support and other contact routes visible.

A considered approach to accessibility

Clear design.
For more people.

An attractive GP website must also be usable. We plan accessibility into the structure, content and interaction design, then agree how it will be checked.

Readable language, sensible headings and clear links help patients navigate with greater confidence. We review keyboard access, contrast and layouts across screen sizes as part of the agreed testing scope.

Accessibility also depends on what happens after launch. We help define how new content is reviewed and who maintains your accessibility statement. Formal assurance or specialist audits can be scoped separately.

Switching GP website provider

A planned move.
Fewer loose ends.

Your domain, content and patient service links deserve careful handling. We work through the handover before the new GP website goes live.

Keep what matters

We review your existing pages and identify content to retain, improve or retire with your approval. Important URLs are mapped so redirects can be planned where needed.

Check access early

Domain ownership, DNS access, hosting arrangements and provider permissions can affect the move. We identify these dependencies before committing to a launch date.

Connect the right services

We check patient-facing links and agree any integration work. Your clinical systems remain with their respective providers unless a separate change is expressly scoped.

One practice or a wider network

The right approach
for your organisation.

NHS GP practices

Prioritise everyday patient tasks, practice information and clear access to existing online services. We discuss the design and content requirements that apply to your practice.

Private GP clinics

Explain your services, clinicians and patient journey clearly. Make it easy to understand fees, enquire and reach your approved booking service.

PCNs and practice groups

Scope a consistent design across multiple locations while preserving the right contacts, opening times and service information for each practice.

Before you choose a partner

GP website design.
Your questions, answered.

Practical answers for practice managers, GP partners and primary care teams.

What makes a good GP website?

A good GP website helps patients complete everyday tasks quickly. It makes appointments, repeat prescriptions, registration, results guidance, opening times and contact details easy to find. Clear writing, accessible navigation and reliable mobile layouts matter more than decorative features.

How much does GP website design cost?

Your quote depends on the number of practices and pages, the condition of your existing content, migration work, service connections and the support you need. We agree the build scope, any one-off charges and ongoing fees before work begins. Tell us your current website address and priorities so we can prepare a relevant proposal.

Can you help if our GP website is offline?

Yes. We can assess the access and content available and discuss an interim information page or a replacement GP website. Timing depends on domain access, approvals and the work required. A replacement website does not itself restore a separate appointment or online consultation platform.

Can we keep our existing domain name?

Usually, if your practice controls the domain or can obtain the necessary permissions from its current provider. We check ownership and DNS access before planning the move. Website and email settings are reviewed separately so changes to the website do not inadvertently disrupt practice email.

Can the website connect to the NHS App and our online consultation provider?

We can add clear links and guidance for the online services your practice already uses, including the NHS App. Embeds or deeper integrations need a separate review of provider documentation, permissions and technical compatibility. We confirm what is possible before including it in your proposal.

How do you approach accessibility in GP website design?

We plan readable content, useful headings, clear link labels, keyboard navigation and responsive layouts from the outset. We agree the accessibility testing scope and statement requirements for your project. Any formal compliance claim needs evidence from the completed website and its content; a visual template alone is not proof.

How long does a new GP website take?

We set a delivery schedule after reviewing your content, access, service links and approval process. A small information site and a multi-practice migration have different needs. If your current website is unavailable, tell us at the start so we can assess the immediate priorities.

Can you support several practices or a primary care network?

Yes. We can scope a shared design approach with individual practice information, locations, opening hours and service links. We agree which content is shared, who approves changes and how updates are managed across the group before development begins.

Will you help with content and ongoing updates?

Content review, migration, hosting, maintenance and ongoing updates can be included in your agreed service. We define what is covered, who supplies and approves clinical or operational information, and how your team requests changes. This keeps responsibilities clear after launch.

Do you provide SEO for GP websites?

We can include descriptive page titles, crawlable content, a sitemap, redirects and clear location information in the build. For private GP services, we can also discuss a separate search strategy. Search rankings are not guaranteed, and patient access remains the central purpose of an NHS practice website.
