“Iโm so glad I went private with Wellsoon from Practice Plus Group rather than rely on the NHS. I chose to put down a deposit upfront and pay off the balance over the next 12 months interest-free via Chrysalis Finance who organise any repayment loans for Wellsoon patients. Itโs brilliant โ it means I can keep my savings in my bank for longer.”
