If you are in need of a Repeat Fit / Sick Note, please complete the form below and we will email your Fit Note to you when it has been processed. 

When do I need a fit / sick note?

7 days off sick or less

If you're off work sick for 7 days or less, your employer should not ask for medical evidence that you've been ill. Instead they can ask you to confirm that you've been ill. You can do this by filling in a form yourself when you return to work. This is called self-certification. Visit the following link for information and the form for self-certification

More than 7 days off sick

If you're off work sick for more than 7 days, your employer will usually ask for a fit / sick note (or Statement of Fitness for Work) from a GP or hospital doctor. Fit / sick notes are sometimes referred to as medical statements or a doctor's note.

Private Fit Notes

• Some employers or insurance schemes may ask you to provide a private fit note.
• There will be a fee if you require a private note for the first seven days of your illness.
• The practice will be able to advise of the current fee, and it would normally be expected that your employer would cover this cost for you as doctor's notes are not normally required for the first week of any illness.

Doctor’s Notes for on-going Illness

• If you are suffering from a long-term problem that the doctor is aware of and will not need to see you in order to issue a further fit note, please complete the e-form below.
• We cannot issue a new fit note until the previous one has expired. Please allow 2 working days from the date your previous certificate expired for your request to be processed before collecting from the practice.
• All fields must be completed for the form to be processed.
• We recommend that when using this e-form you print off and keep a copy of the acceptance page (which pops up after the submit button is pressed).
