A 60 week wait for an urgent NHS appointment. A 2 week wait for a Benenden appointment. What is there not to like about private health care schemes.

I have been a Beneden member for over 20 years and have only had to use them in the last 18months. From start to finish the referral process was quick and easy. The staff dealing with phone enquiry were friendly, professional and informative. My partner had an issue with his knee, from the initial phone call to the necessary invasive treatment was just short of 3 months. Absolutely amazing, the specialists that dealt with him were some of the best in the business. We cannot fault the service we have received and I am recommending Beneden to all my friends. Fantastic 5 star service.
