Consultation Fee:

The fee for initial consultation will not exceed £250 and the fee for a follow-up consultation will not exceed £150. This is based on a consultation of 20-30 minutes. These estimates are correct as at the time of writing (30/9/26).

Should you cancel your appointment with less than 48 hours notice, a cancellation fee of up to 100% of the appointment fee may be charged.

Following your consultation, you may need additional tests (e.g. blood tests or imaging/scans) to help diagnose your condition. If the test is undertaken by the hospital, and not by us, the fees for these tests will be determined by the hospital and charged to you or your private medical insurer separately. If we need to charge additional fees in relation to any of these tests, details will be provided before proceeding.

Hand Therapy:

Many patients benefit from hand therapy as part of their management. This may be required before, after or instead of surgery. Additional fees will be charged for this service by the hospital.

Private Medical Insurance:

If you have private medical insurance, please contact your insurer before your consultation to check the terms of your policy, particularly the level and type of outpatient cover you have, including any reimbursement limits on individual consultation fees.

Mr Bochmann is recognised by the following private medical insurers:

BUPA, WPA, Allianz, Aviva, AXA, Healix, Vitality, Alliance Health, Cigna

Please note, you are responsible for any fees that are not covered by insurance. Sometimes, you will have to pay an excess.
