If you have been ill for more than 7 days you will need a doctor’s certificate. These certificates are called ‘Fitness To Work’ Certificates.

The doctor may call you or arrange for an appointment.

If you have already been seen by your Doctor about this illness your certificate will be sent to you within a week.

Please be aware your sick certificate cannot be post dated so will be re issued the day after your sick note expires. You are covered up until midnight on the final day of your sick certificate.

Please be aware that any replies from the surgery may appear in your Junk Inbox.
