When you can’t move your schedule
Teachers juggle busy schedules, lesson planning, marking, and the demands of the classroom — often leaving little time to prioritise their own health. Traditional GP surgeries rarely fit neatly around the school day, making it difficult to book or attend appointments without disrupting lessons or taking valuable time off.
YesGP is designed to make healthcare accessible for teachers. With a quick phone call, you’ll be connected to a Care Coordinator who ensures you speak to the right doctor or specialist, often within hours. No waiting for weeks, no rushing to squeeze into limited evening slots — just straightforward medical support when you need it most.
Why YesGP is ideal for teachers
- Fits around your timetable – request a call-back at a time that works for you.
- Fast access – most calls are returned within 2 hours.
- Family cover included – one plan takes care of you and your household.
- Discreet and convenient – no need to explain absences or take time off unnecessarily.
- Continuity of care – speak to the same team whenever you need ongoing support.
