Been a member since 1994 and it is a comfort to know that they are there in case I need help. Worth every penny as it is 5* service. My family are also covered by Benenden and I would highly recommend them to everyone that cares about their health. You cannot put a price on your health.

Excellent service !

I was able to book an appointment for the next day with plenty of options for different times of the day. I was also able to choose whether I preferred a male or female doctor. The doctor was very kind, friendly and knowledgeable and i came away from the appointment relieved and informed and very clear on next steps.
