All doctors working are qualified, UK-based healthcare professionals. They: 

  • Are NHS-trained and experienced in general practice. 
  • Follow the same professional standards as doctors you would see in person. 
  • Are registered with GMC. 

This means your consult follows the same clinical approach as any GP assessment, but it takes place via video rather than in person. If your condition cannot be safely assessed online, you’ll be advised to seek an in-person appointment. 

Are Hola’s doctors real, UK-qualified GPs? 

Yes. Hola Health in the UK works with qualified, NHS-trained and GMC-registered general practitioners (GPs). Every online doctor on the Hola Health UK platform is registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) and has completed the same training and assessment as GPs working in the NHS or private practice. 

Being GMC-registered means: 

  • Their qualifications are certified. 
  • Professional and ethical standards bind them. 
  • They can be held accountable through the GMC if any concerns arise. 

Hola Health UK works with qualified clinicians who provide evidence-based advice and issue clinical documentation only when it is clinically appropriate.
