Hospital & Appointment Travel

The right entrance, not the right postcode

Southmead and the BRI are large sites where the postcode drops you a long walk from the department you actually need. Tell us the department or the clinic name and the driver takes you to that door — which for someone on crutches is the whole point of booking a car.

Waiting, or coming back

Appointments overrun. You can book the driver to wait, with the waiting time priced in advance, or arrange a collection and simply call when you are finished. Either way the office holds your booking and knows to expect you.

Assistance, if you need it

Drivers will help you from the front door to the vehicle and from the vehicle to the entrance, carry a bag, and stow a folding wheelchair or a frame in the boot. Say what you need when you book so we send an appropriate vehicle and driver.

Family and regular treatment

For a course of treatment — a series of appointments over weeks — we can hold standing bookings with the same driver where possible, which makes a real difference to a patient who would rather not explain everything again each time.
