Sickness Certificates (Fit Notes)

Home Visits

Home visits are available for patients who are housebound because of illness or disability.

If you believe that you require a home visit you should telephone the surgery between 9:00am and 10:30am.  

A Doctor will phone you back as it may be that your problem can be dealt with by telephone advice or that it would be more appropriate to send a nurse, the Early Visiting Service or to arrange a hospital attendance.

GP Home visits are made after morning surgery usually between 12:00pm to 2:00pm (these times may vary).

It is not possible to guarantee that the doctor of your choice will visit.

Please give us as much notice as possible so we can offer your appointment to someone else.

Ways to cancel
