About us

The Bookable team

The people who write and check Bookable's articles, so you can see who is behind the health information you read.

How we write our articles

We build Bookable with GP surgeries across England, so we hear every day where people get stuck: which form to fill in, whether they need ID, what to do when there are no appointments left. Our articles are here to get you unstuck.

Every article we publish:

  • is based on NHS guidance
  • is reviewed by an NHS GP on our team
  • is written in plain English, so you get the answer without the jargon
  • shows when it was last updated, so you know it is still right
