The NHS does not pay for some of our services.
For example:
private sick notes
insurance forms
holiday cancellation forms
medical reports
fitness to travel certificates
private prescriptions
passport signing
student examination considerations
some travel vaccination services
You can find our fees for these services in the surgery.
Private medical examinations
To request an appointment for a private medical examination please submit an eConsult request form online and then select ‘Medical Examination’ on the relevant page in the form Non-NHS medical examinations, for example HGV, taxi, pre-employment and insurance medicals require more time than an ordinary consultation.
A fee will be charged as these do not come under NHS terms of service. You will be informed of the fee before confirming your appointment. Examination fees must be paid in advance of an appointment.
Private medical forms
To request a GP to complete private forms or paperwork please submit an eConsult request form online and then select ‘GP Letter, Medical Report or Other Documentation or paperwork’ as appropriate on the relevant page in the form Private forms & reports, for example a passport application, needing a doctor to complete and sign them, will also attract a private fee.
If you wish to clarify the costs charged for private forms and medicals, please advise on your query and we will quote before proceeding,
Please note we are not obligated to carry out None-NHS work and due to the demand on our capacity it can take up to 2 months for completion.
