Why patients choose Dr Asif Naseem
Dr Naseem qualified BMBS and achieved MRCGP with the Royal College of General Practitioners in 2012. In 2023, he added a Basic Aviation Medicine (BCAM) qualification from King’s College London, formalising his expertise in aeromedical assessments and aviation-related occupational health.
His private sector career is unusually broad for a GP. At Nuffield Health, he served as London Regional Lead GP with clinical governance responsibility for all London medical centres, corporate clinics, and a team of over 70 GPs. During that period, he also held the role of National Prescribing Lead, was an antimicrobial steward, and sat on the Critical Care Expert Advisory Group, roles that gave him a systems-level view of private medicine that most GPs do not have.
He is co-founder of Meridian Medical, a clinic specialising in aeromedical examinations and private GP services, and has delivered corporate on-site clinics for organisations including the Bank of England, JP Morgan, Schroders, Vodafone, Invesco, and A&O Shearman.
He is Medical Advisor to the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust, a charity delivering prostate screening and blood test screening nationwide. In this role, he advises the organisation and consults patients who have questions about PSA results and men’s health following screening, an area where his depth in preventive medicine and men’s health is directly relevant.
He has clinical experience in Dubai at Valiant Clinic, where he delivers health check-ups, advanced screening, and primary care, giving him familiarity with the healthcare needs of international patients and expatriates.
Patient reviews consistently note that he takes time to listen, explains findings clearly without making patients feel rushed, and sets out a plan of action that actually makes sense. One Doctify reviewer described him as “simply one of the best doctors it has been my privilege to experience”.
He is recognised by Cigna, Bupa International, Healix, Henner, and United Healthcare. Self-pay patients are equally welcome.

What Dr Asif Naseem offers at LSDC Healthcare
Same-day private GP appointments
For patients who need to see a doctor today rather than wait for an appointment, Dr Naseem offers same-day and next-day GP consultations in the City of London. A GP appointment includes any prescriptions, referral letters, or sick notes required.
Common reasons patients book a same-day appointment include:
- Acute infections: chest, urine, ear, throat, and skin
- Unexplained symptoms that have appeared quickly
- Prescription review or repeat prescription
- A second opinion before or after seeing another doctor
- Something that has been worrying you and needs proper assessment
Chronic disease management
Long-term conditions that have been prescribed treatment but never properly reviewed often benefit from a structured GP consultation. Dr Naseem manages:
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes
- Asthma and chronic respiratory conditions
- High cholesterol and cardiovascular risk
- Thyroid conditions (in conjunction with specialist review where needed)
- Ongoing monitoring and medication review
He coordinates directly with LSDC’s consultant team when specialist input is needed, covering cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, dermatology, urology, and gynaecology.
Executive and corporate health screening
Dr Naseem has spent years delivering health screening for major corporate clients and brings that structured, efficient approach to individual patients at LSDC. Health checks can be tailored to your circumstances, age, risk factors, and concerns.
A comprehensive executive health screen may include:
- Full blood count, liver, renal, and thyroid function
- Lipid profile and cardiovascular risk assessment
- Diabetes screen (HbA1c and fasting glucose)
- PSA (prostate-specific antigen) for men
- Cancer screening including bowel cancer (FIT test)
- Vitamin levels including D, B12, and iron studies
- Genetic marker screening where indicated
- ECG and blood pressure assessment
- Full clinical examination
Results are reviewed in detail with a clear, written summary and follow-up plan. For patients who have had health checks elsewhere that produced a list of results without a meaningful explanation, this is where the value of a senior GP becomes apparent.
Men’s health
Dr Naseem has a specific interest in men’s health. He assesses and manages:
- PSA testing and prostate health assessment, including review of results from screening programmes
- Testosterone deficiency and related symptoms: fatigue, reduced libido, changes in body composition
- Sexual health screening and treatment for STIs
- Erectile dysfunction, assessed and managed or referred appropriately
- General men’s health concerns that men often delay seeking advice on
His Medical Advisor role with the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust means he regularly guides men through PSA results and prostate health decisions, an area where clear, unhurried explanation of what a result means and what the realistic options are makes a material difference.
Sexual and reproductive health
- Confidential sexual health screening (full STI panel including HIV)
- Treatment and management of common sexually transmitted infections
- Contraception advice, prescriptions, and coil referral
- Pregnancy testing and early pregnancy advice
- Pre-travel sexual health advice
All sexual health consultations are handled with complete discretion.
Preventive health and longevity medicine
Dr Naseem’s background in health screening and his role at the Graham Fulford Charitable Trust reflect a long-standing interest in finding problems before they become serious.
For patients who are well but want to understand their health picture and reduce long-term risk, he provides:
- Cardiovascular risk assessment and reduction planning
- Cancer screening coordination
- Lifestyle, nutrition, and sleep-related health advice
