Professional Medical Examinations
HGV/PSV, Taxi, Boatman, Powerboat, DVLA, Insurance medicals
Paperwork is completed through questioning but will require an extensive physical
examination to confirm satisfactory fitness.
It may be worth undertaking a review with an optician prior to the examination.
Taxi drivers are locally required to satisfy the DVLA group 2 entitlement for fitness to
drive. This is the same stringent requirement as pertains to HGV drivers.
Please bring any paperwork, glasses (if required) and medication to the examination. Be
aware you may be requested to provide a Urine specimen on arrival.
Appointments are available usually on a Tuesday afternoon after routine surgery ends.
Medical Reports
for Institutions (insurance, employer) or Patients (e.g. supportive)
We complete various medical reports including but not limited to insurance, occupational,
disability and housing reports.
Patients may also request private sick notes, personal insurance forms, holiday
cancellation forms, fitness to travel certificates, supportive letters and some private
prescriptions.
All are chargeable. When a doctor simply signs a certificate or minor report of
confirmation, the Doctor needs to check the patient’s entire medical record to ensure that
they are confirming to be providing accurate information.
A doctor will not be able to complete forms the same day, so please ensure reasonable
notice is given.
We aim to complete reports within a 28 day time frame, essential NHS workload naturally
takes priority and can cause delay.
