Medical Examinations, both NHS and Non NHS

Commercial and Insurance related Medical Examinations

Many Organisations now require a Medical Certificate for Insurance, Occupation or Work. These Non NHS Examinations will be completed by a Doctor and charged at the Practice Rate.

Please call Practice Reception to be advised what is required.

Please make it clear that this is a commercial transaction and find out what cost are involved.

You will be required to pay at the time of your visit to the Practice.

 

Fitness-to-fly certificates

Airlines may ask patients to provide letters or medical certificates confirming that a person’s medical condition is currently stable and a patient is 'fit to fly', this often affects pregnant women. GPs are not specially trained in aviation medicine and not insured to certify whether patients are fit to fly. We also do not have direct access to the ante natal records of our pregnant patients. Unfortunately we are therefore unable to provide any such certification.

We understand that this decision may cause inconvenience to some of our patients however, our primary responsibility is to ensure the safety and well-being of all our patients and we believe this decision aligns with that responsibility. If your midwife is also unable to provide this service, you may wish to access your records via the NHS app and use this information to request certification via a private provider.

Thank you for your understanding.
