Private medicine, personally delivered.

Knightsbridge Doctors has a rich and colourful history, shaped by a succession of dedicated doctors and staff, each bringing their own style and influence.

The practice was originally founded by a Scotsman, Dr McNaught who established it as a panel practice (1911 National Insurance Act). When the National Health Service was introduced in 1948, Dr McNaught chose not to join, instead maintaining the practice as a private medical service. This decision set the tone for the character and independence of the practice in the decades that have followed.

The practice has been home to several memorable doctors including Dr Ray Rowntree, Dr John Allison and Dr Tom King. In 1968 the practice moved from Cumberland Mansions in Marble Arch to Basil Mansions in Knightsbridge and Dr Swann (Cons Radiologist) helped establish the radiology unit.

Today, Knightsbridge Doctors continues to thrive. Building on nearly a century of excellence and tradition, while meeting the modern needs of our patients with the same commitment and care. The practice reflects traditional private medicine and evolving patient expectations, shaped by a collegiate team with individual strengths.
