Non-urgent advice: If you have been unwell for 7 days or less
If you have been ill for 7 days or less you don’t need to see a Doctor. You can complete a Self-Certification form yourself. However some employers insist on a Doctor’s note regardless. A Doctors note under these circumstances involves a charge of £10.
Many employers have their own self-certification forms. If your employer doesn’t have its own form you can download the Self Certification Form. Please print it, fill it in and hand it in to your employer. You do not need to see a Doctor.
If you have been unwell for more than 7 days
Contact the practice and give us the information requested. The practice will tell you whether an appointment or further information is needed.
