For most of the Tay coast, we are the nearest one — and the bridge has been free to cross since 2008.The Tay Road Bridge is 1.4 miles long. From the Fife end at Newport-on-Tay, the clinic at 14 Dudhope Street is a straight run up the A92 into the city — under four miles in total. For many of our Fife patients, coming to us is a shorter trip than driving to Kirkcaldy or Dunfermline, and a good deal shorter than the wait for a routine appointment.Typical driving times to the clinic, in normal traffic:Newport-on-Tay8 min3.7 miles via the A92Tayport10 min5.1 miles via the B946Cupar22 min14.0 miles via the A92St Andrews26 min14.2 miles via the A91Wormit, Gauldry, Balmerino, Leuchars and Guardbridge all sit between those figures.

We already see patients from across north-east Fife — Newport-on-Tay, Wormit, Tayport, Leuchars, Cupar and St Andrews — for blood tests, joint injections, D4 medicals and health checks.

Book the free review call +44 7857 761328 Fife questionsThe things Fife patients actually askMostly about the journey — and about whether it is needed. Can I have the review call and be seen the same day, so it's only one trip?Often, yes. If the review call is in the morning and the GP thinks you need examining, we can usually offer an appointment the same day or the next. Say on the call that you are travelling from Fife — we will work around the journey rather than ask you to make it twice. Do I have to pay to cross the Tay Road Bridge?No. Tolls on the Tay and Forth road bridges were abolished in February 2008. The crossing is free in both directions, and it is 1.4 miles long. Where do I park?There is free parking on site at 14 Dudhope Street. If it is busy, Bell Street multi-storey is a 0.3-mile walk — around eight minutes — and charges from £4.20 for up to three hours on weekdays. Do you have a clinic in Fife?No. We have one premises, at 14 Dudhope Street in Dundee, and every in-person appointment happens there. We see Fife patients regularly, but we would rather say plainly that you will be crossing the bridge than imply a clinic that doesn't exist. Phone and video appointments, of course, reach you wherever you are. Can I get blood tests done without a referral from my NHS GP?Yes. You don't need a referral and you don't need to be registered with us. Bloods are taken at the clinic and sent to the laboratory the same day, and a GP explains the results by phone — so there is no second journey for a normal result. I need a D4 medical for my HGV licence. Is it all done in one visit?Yes — one appointment, with the form completed and signed before you leave. Bring your glasses or contact lenses if you wear them, a list of your medication, and your DVLA paperwork. More about D4 medicals. Will you tell my NHS practice in Fife?Only with your consent. We are a private service and we don't access your NHS record unless you share it. If you would like your own GP kept in the loop — usually a good idea — we will write to them. What if it's urgent?We are not an emergency service, and neither is the review call. If you are unwell now, contact NHS 24 on 111, or 999 in an emergency. For anything that can wait a day, call or message us and we will tell you honestly whether we can help sooner.Still not sure it is worth the journey?Ask a GP for ten minutes, free, before you decide. That is exactly what the review call is for.
