Who we are

This Site is operated by myHealthSpecialist Limited (we, us or myHealthSpecialist).  We are registered in England with number 07964291 and have our registered office at Suite 45, 915 High Road, London, N12 8QJ. We are registered for VAT under number 135203551.

Purpose of this Site  

We are a specialist medical directory site for GPs and patients and those Specialists who have registered with us:
•    for GPs and Specialists to recommend Specialists to be included in the Site Listings; and
•    for GPs, Specialists and patients to search the Site Listings.


This Site also permits GPs to share certain information amongst themselves and Healthcare Organisations to have Clinic Pages and Specialist Listings.  The Site is open to patients to view Site Listings. Additional or alternative facilities and functions may be added to this Site in the future and/ or the Site may be open to different categories of users in which case these Terms and your rights of access may be varied. We are not, however, obliged to add any additional features or functionality or to make our Site available to anyone other than our current membership of medical practitioners at any time.

How to obtain an entry in the Site Listings what types of entry are available  
In order to obtain an entry in the Site Listings (searchable by patients), you will need to be recommended via this Site by a GP or another Specialist.  There are 3 types of entry in the Site Listings as follows:

•    NHS only (Basic Listing).

•    NHS and private (Full Membership)

•    Private only (Full Membership)


Each offers the option of an online profile, as described in more detail below.  ‘NHS and private’ or ‘Private only’ memberships require that a subscription fee is paid and allows for more profile features and membership benefits.  Registering for a Full Membership also allows you to become a registered member with us and access additional members-only benefits which are provided at The Site’s discretion. The following features are included in a Basic Listing and Full Membership:





What happens if we receive a recommendation to include you in the Site Listings?

After we have received a recommendation for you:
•    we will include a Basic Listing for you in the Site Listings;
•    we will send you an invitation by email to the address which we have been provided with by the person recommending you or which we have found through publicly available sources, asking you whether you want to retain your Basic Listing, register for Full Membership or whether you would like us to remove your Basic Listing. We will also include details of how to respond to that invitation, including a link to the Site Registration Process;
•    if we do not receive a response from you, you will remain on the Site Listings with a Basic Listing for so long as we determine.

How to register for Full Membership
If you want to register for Full Membership you will need to:
•    follow the steps in the Site Registration Process in the invitation we send to you; or
•    Register online through the specialist portal

and pay us the Subscription Fee set out below if you require an “NHS and private” or “Private only” account.  You will have the opportunity to review and correct any errors you make in completing the Site Registration Process before you send it to us.  Please check it carefully.


When your contract for us to provide you with Full Membership is effective
Your registration with us for Full Membership and our contract to provide you with an Full Membership will be effective once:
•    you have fully completed the Site Registration Process and we have received that Registration from you; and
•    if you have an “NHS and private” or “Private only” account your request to be invoiced has been accepted by the system and we receive confirmation that your payment of the Subscription Fee set out below has been successfully processed.

You will know that this has happened when you see a screen at the end of the Site Registration Process stating that you have successfully registered with us.

How long your registration for Full Membership will last
Unless you or we cancel it in accordance with these Terms your registration with us for  Membership:
•    will start on date on which our contract to provide you with Full Membership comes into effect (Start Date); and
•    will renew automatically after that for further one year periods on each anniversary of the Start Date (the Annual Renewal Date) if annual subscription is in place or on a rolling monthly basis if this option has been selected during registration.
•    Subscriptions fees only apply to “NHS and private” or “Private only” account at the price stated during registration and there is currently no fee for an “NHS only” account (Basic Listing)


Renewals will be charged at the prevailing price, as published on our site.  Prices may be increased or decreased at our discretion.  Additional services may also be offered in the future and these will be described, along with their prices, on our site.


How and when your registration with us for Full Membership may be cancelled

•    by us:
•    if you cease to be a Specialist or to meet the requirements for users of this Site at any time;

•    if we have reason to believe that you are or have been in breach of any of these Terms or of your contract with us;
•    by you at any time by using the “Cancel Account” in the myAccount section of this Site. Where you cancel your registration with us you will not be entitled to a pro-rata refund of any Annual or Monthly Subscription Fee you have previously paid.
