Reception will
supply you with a brochure and
timetable and give you a brief
description of the surgery, or this
can be viewed on the surgery
website.
If you are from overseas and have
not been registered in the UK
before, you will need to present a
valid work permit/proof of
employment.
Students from overseas will need a
student visa and confirmation of the
university they are attending.
Sick Notes
The rules on sick notes are:
For the first three days of an
illness your employer does not
legally require any sick notes,
unless stated in your contract.
For days 4, 5, 6 and 7 you can give
your employers a ‘Self Certificate’
sick note (click
here to view and print a
copy). This is a form you
complete and does not require a
doctor's opinion.
For any illness over 7 days long you
will need a doctor’s note.
If your employer wants a doctor’s
note for a period of illness less
than a week we are not obliged to
issue any certificate, if we do
there may be a fee involved for your
employer, see below. We will happily
discuss this with your employer with
your permission.
In special circumstances we can
issue a private sick note for a
charge of £10.
