Non-NHS Services

Last Updated: Wednesday, 12 July 2023

Some things that patients want us to do are not covered under our contract with the NHS and therefore attract charges.

Examples include the following:

• Medicals for fostering and DVLA requested driving medicals. 
• Insurance claim forms
• Private sick notes
• Travel pass applications, excluding passport applications
• Private letters

Please note we no longer provide private medicals for pre-employment, taxi or HGV licence medicals.

We do not provide letters for the police for shotgun licence applications.

The fees charged are based on the British Medical Association (BMA) suggested scales and our reception staff will be happy to advise you about them along with appointment availability. 

As this is private work not covered under the NHS contract, it can take up to 6 weeks to be completed.

We will contact you either via telephone or SMS text message when it is ready to be collected. All fees are to be paid on collection.

Please contact Reception for further information about your specific needs.
