There are big variations across the NHS. But, in my experience, GP visits are usually limited to 10 minutes, the initial consultation with a neurologist to 60 minutes and subsequent ones to 30 minutes. When things are stable it is common in the UK to see a specialist nurse every 6 months, rather than a neurologist.
