Patients use Anima to get what they need from their GP practice quickly, without always having to visit or call the practice.
FOR PATIENTS
Use Anima to quickly get in touch with your GP practice
Submit a request wherever you are: no more waiting on hold to speak to someone.
Always be in the know: track and review your entire request history without having to contact your practice.
Anima helps you to do more than just submit requests: you can view appointment invitations from your practice, find other services nearby and even attend video consultations.
Anima is a communication platform that allows you to seek care from your GP practice. When you have an issue that you want to contact your GP about, you can use Anima to submit your request online.

Anima is approved by the NHS, and we work with your GP practice or healthcare provider in order to enable them to provide you with care. We sign specific agreements to let us do this, and only collect the data that we need in order to make this happen.

Nothing! Anima is absolutely free for patients to use: all you need to sign up is access to a phone or computer, an email address and mobile phone number. If you don’t have any of these, your practice can even submit requests on your behalf.
We want to make sure your experience of accessing care from your GP is the best it can be. Here’s how some patients using Anima have found it:
So much more efficient than booking an appointment and attending the surgery.
This is SUCH a good chance from the old system! It did exactly what I wanted to and its easy to use!
I am very impressed with the new Anima system at my GP surgery. It's a breath of fresh air.
My request was dealt with on the same day and a plan was sent through almost immediately.
